Cri de Chateaubriand, surdité de Sainte-Beuve, cécité de la canaille moderne !

  • Publication type: Article from a collective work
  • Collective work:
    Archéologie du Contre Sainte-Beuve
  • Author: Garneau de L’Isle-Adam (Marie-Christine)
  • Abstract: According to Proust, all intelligent readers are Romantics. Originally a Romantic, Sainte-Beuve defied traditional anti-biographical criticism by paving the way for a biographical method capable of probing the mystery of geniuses and their creations. In the case of Chateaubriand, Sainte-Beuve can only be blamed from the moment he joined the cohort of those who turned Chateaubriand into an imposter by doubting his sincerity, intellectual life, and genius.
