About this book
Eleven writers and thinkers are examined in James Huneker's collection of studies: Stendhal, Flaubert, Baudelaire, Anatole France, Huysmans, Barrès, Nietzsche, Ibsen, Stirner, Blake and Ernest Hello. The pieces had first come out in magazines and newspapers, among them Scribner's Magazine, the Atlantic Monthly and the New York Sun, and were gathered by Scribner's in 1909 with a dedication to Georg Brandes. The first study, on Henry Beyle, begins with his unlikely appearance and his devotion to love, drawing on remarks by Berlioz, Sainte-Beuve and Mérimée. The plates include a portrait of Stendhal and a proof page of Madame Bovary.
