René, a milestone of literature, presents the first genuine and complete picture of that state of spiritual frustration and moral isolation known as le mal du siècle, its causes, symptoms, ravages, and cure.Chateaubriand, a prodigious artist with an incomparable style, enjoys the further distinction of having fused in his work the end of one epoch and the beginning of another. It is sometimes forgotten that these epochs are not only French but also European in scope, and their reverberations as expressed by Chateaubriand have affected almost every subsequent writer of importance up to the present. Chateaubriand is often called the father of romanticism. It may be claimed with equal reason that he is the grandfather of the neo-romanticism of our time.This edition of René contains, as well as a full introduction, notes covering the allusions to place names, events, and personages, and a complete vocabulary. 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Gothic & Romance$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Gothic & Romance. 676 $a848.609 700 $aFinch$b R.
