1901. With a critical introduction by Maurice Hewlett. A
frontispiece and numerous other portraits with descriptive notes by
Octave Uzanne. Marie-Henri Beyle, who called himself Stendhal, was
one of the great early- to mid-19th century French novelists and
writers. He is best known for his masterpieces Le Rouge Et Le Noir
(The Red and the Black) and The Charterhouse of Parma. He also
wrote travel books, literature, art criticism and biographies of
W.A. Mozart and Joseph Haydn. After the fall of the French empire
Stendhal settled in Italy. His travel book, Rome, Naples Et
Florence En 1817, was the first book he published under the name of
Stendhal. He later returned to Paris and spent the rest of his life
writing successfully and prolifically. In this classic work
Stendhal narrates a young aristocrat's adventures in Napoleon's
army and in the court of Parma, illuminating in the process the
whole cloth of European history. See other titles by this author
available from Kessinger Publishing.
