Moving from her affective theory to her literary practice, we explore Staël's transformative influence on the communities of women artists she fostered. Her cosmopolitanism consisted in transcending traditional distinctions between emotion and cognition, pleasure and pain, genders and genres, languages and cultures, Classicism and Romanticism, melancholy and enthusiasm.French literature19th centuryHistory and criticismFranceIntellectual life19th centuryElectronic books.French literatureHistory and criticism.848/.609Cuillé Tili Boon920897Szmurlo Karyna920898MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462561003321Stael's philosophy of the passions2065489UNINA
