Über dieses Buch
Chateaubriand was the giant of French literature in the early nineteenth century. Drawing on eighteenth-century English romanticists, on explorers in America, and on Goethe's Werther, he had a profound effect on French writers from Victor Hugo and Lamartine to George Sand and Flaubert. A quixotic and paradoxical personality, he combined impressive careers as a brilliant prose-poet, a spiritual guide, a high-ranking diplomat, and an enterprising lover. Atala and René are his two best-known works, reflecting not only his own joys, aspirations, and despair, but the emerging tastes of a new literary era. Atala is the passionate and tragic love story of a young Indian couple wandering in the wilderness, enthralled by the beauties of nature, drawn to a revivified Christianity by its esthetic charm and consoling beneficence, and finally succumbing to the cruelty of fate. Perhaps even more than Werther or Childe Harold, René embodies the romantic hero, and is not wholly foreign to the disorientation of youth today. Solitary, mysterious, ardent, and poetic, he is in open revolt against a society whose values he rejects. Withough question this archetype played a large part in determining the course of French literature up to the 1850's.

This
feeling
that
the
earth
is
a
place
of
exile
was
soon
to
become
common
among
the
romantics.
Lamartine,
íor

expresses
it
in
Solitude

and

Alas!

This
paragraph
is
a
concise
rendition
o£
the
romantic
malady,
the
French
"mal
du

or
"ennui."
Byron
describes
it
as
"that
settled
ceaseless
gloom...
That
will
not
look
beyond
the
tomb,
But
cannot
hope
for
rest
before."

Chateaubriand
tells
us
that
he
had
tried
to
take
his
life
in
his
youth,
but
the
gun

to

"I

In
his
Memoirs
Chateaubriand
writes:
"A
hidden
instinct
warned
me
that,
as
I
went
forth
in
the
world,
I
would
find
nothing

sought."

Better
to
resemble
ordinary
men.
The
author
says
of
himself
in
the
Memoirs:
"Had
I
been
more
like
other
men,
I
should
nave
been
happier.
If,
without
robbing
me
of
my
intelligence,
someone
had
succeeded
in
killing
my
so-called
talent,
he
would
have
treated
me
as
a
friend."
Werther,
too,
laments:
"Gracious
Providence
...
why
didst
thou
not
withhold
some
of
those
blessings
I
possess,
and
substitute
in
their
place
a
feeling
of
self-
confidence
and
contentraent?"

A
last
farewell.
This
is
based
on
an
actual
visit
of
Chateaubriand
to
Combourg;
he
saw
the
oíd
cháteau
again
in
1791
before
leaving
for
America,
and
once
more
around
1801,
before
publishing
Rene.
At
this
latter
date
the
Revolution
had
already
occurred,
and
this
may
explain
the
aban-
doned
condition
of
the
cháteau.

So

and

When
Chateau-
briand
was
twelve
years
oíd,
he
had
witnessed
a
cousin
of
his
taking
the
veil.
This
probably
left
a
deep
impression
on
him.

Satisfaction
in
the
fullness
of
my
anguish.
Expressions
such
as
these
(cf.
"cherished
melancholy"
and
"sorrow
cióse
akin
to
joy")
are
too
significant
to
be
mere
literary
paradoxes;
in
the
Memoirs,
too,
Chateau-
briand
speaks
of
"this
sadness
which
has
been
my
torment
and
my
felicity."

Why,
what

shame.
The

Adolphe:
"I
hate
that
type
of
vanity
which
is
concerned
with
itself
while
telling
of
the
harm
it
has
done,
which
means
to
draw
pity
by
describing
itself,
and
which,
hovering
invulnerable
amidst
the
ruins,
analyzes
itself
iristead
of
repenting."

A
rock
.
..in
the
setting
sun.
This
last
evocative
picture
again
represcnts
one
of
the
author's
personal
postures.
In
the
Memoirs
he
writes:
"North
of
the
cháteau
stretched
a
plain
strewn
with
druidic
rocks;
I
would
go
off
and
sit
on
one
of
these
in
the
setting
sun.
The
gilded
summit
of
the
woods,
the
splendor
of
the
earth
and
the
evening
star
twinkling
through
the
pink
clouds
brought
me
back
to
my
dreams..."
