Download or read book Theophile Gautier (Classic Reprint) written by Maxime Du Camp and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theophile Gautier Large proportion of them who, like T heophzle are polygraphes. Our ancestors mo; e briefly termed them hacks, and, sznce Dr. Johnson, or, at least, since Southey, there has been no hack so' distinguished as The'ophile. His Pegasus was early broken into harness, and his biographer, M Maxime du Camp, like himself, is constantly regretting this bondage. Perhaps too many laments are uttered over this misfortune like other men, T he'ophile Gautier did what he could, and what it was in him to do. He was a poet, indeed, and we are asked to believe that, had the State aided him with an adequate pension, his place as a poet would have been higher, his poetic work greater in bulk, and nobler in quality. But this may well be doubted. The man of letters in Gautier was stronger than the poet had it notbeen so, probably he would have given himself more freely and with a stricter loyalty to the Muse. A writer in whom the poet is supreme, a writer like Wordsworth, or Tennyson, will take poverty for his bride, disdaining the seductions of labour which is easier and better paid. To both of these Englishmen fortune proved kind, after years of self-denial. A s a rule, at least in England, the poet has been a man of leisure, or if, like Burns, he lived by the labour of his hands, he wrote poetry in his hours of freedom, without hope of practical reward. The circumstances of his life and his necessities made Gautier a jour nalist very probably (or rather, certainly) he did not even possess the pittance on which Words worth and Tennyson cultivated verse with an exclusive devotion. But we feel a conviction that, if Gautier had been more ardently and essentially a poet, he, too, would have found or made a way by which he might devote himself to this art.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Théophile Gautier, Vol. 9 This was all to the author's advantage, for no word of the story was yet down on paper, though no doubt much of the novel existed in his mind, and it needed only a definite contract, binding him hard and fast to complete the work in a given time, to induce him to put it into definite and tangible form.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 2 But if Gautier could not and did not seek to wholly reverse the judgments of Boileau, he succeeded in making the readers of his own and of succeeding generations appreciate in these minor poets many a forgotten beauty, and in giving such vivid reproduc tions of the men and their times that every one, Cyrano de Bergerac, saint-amant, Scarron, and the others actually live in his pages. He has written criticisms keen, bright, interesting; full of brilliant passages, of evocations of bygone times, of restoration of forgotten modes of thought; he has made intel ligible the fame which most of these men enjoyed in their day, -and all this without once wearying the reader, but, on the contrary, maintaining his interest and exciting his curiosity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 6 But he has handled with much skill the various ele ments that could contribute to the interest of a tale that Parisians were to read in the columns of a daily paper. He has brought in enough of the life of society in his day, enough of the worldliness and the luxury that the bourgeois delighted in being familiarized with, to make his circle of readers follow attentively the fortunes of this mystic love affair. He has used his art to paint a delicate portrait of an innocent and pure girl whose heart has been given once and for all to the man of her choice. Indeed his portrait of Lavinia d'audefini is one of the sweetest he ever drew, and far surpasses in true beauty the richly coloured.

Download or read book The Complete Works of Théophile Gautier, Vol. 11 written by Théophile Gautier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 11: Militona, the Nightingales, Omphale, the Marchioness's Lap-Dog, Jack and Jill, the Thousand and Second Night, Elias Wildmanstadius, David Jovard, the Bowl of Punch Very different is the short, sweet tale called The Nightingales. Written for young people, and appear ing first in a publication intended for them, it was com posed in order to explain an engraving, - a common practice in those days, as Gautier has told us himself. But no one remembers the engraving, and everybody who has ever read The Nightingales keeps the quaint story in mind. It is a very delicate bit of work, written in a subdued tone, but none the less very telling. Gautier loved music, and in this brief sketch he has praised it as it deserves. The Marchioness's lap-dog is in another strain. This time it is the eighteenth century which has at tracted the author, and he has made a dainty little story out ofa mere trifle, with just enough indication of the licentiousness of the age to be in keeping with the model he followed, yet not enough of it to spoil what is really a deftly touched story of a man's whim and a woman's caprice. Omphale is purely fantastic; it does not pretend to be anything else. It belongs to the same class of story as The Mummy's Foot, Arria Marcella, and The Vampire. It is not as long as any Of these.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Brief-Narrative Art of Theophile Gautier La M orte amoureuse was prepared for Balzac's Chronique de Paris,2 and Balzac himself had written a little earlier3 several tales of salient short-story characteristics, yet neither he nor Gautier in any way suggest that they were aware of the temporary similarity of their narrative processes. A similarity there is, however, and not in the case of la M orte amoureuse alone; other stories written by Gautier within a few years preceding 1836 approach the same stand ard and may be considered tentative efforts at the form finally achieved in 1836.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 6: Portraits of the Day Of course, Balzac was largely a Romanticist, while Gautier tended, not to realism exactly, but to a soberer mode of thought and to a firmer, cleaner, more accurate form of expression than the school of which he had been so illustrious a member, and which was being dethroned in its turn by the followers of Stendhal, Merimee, and Balzac. Gautier appreciated the admi rable work of the latter at a time when praise was but grudgingly conceded to one of the greatest masters of French letters. The realism of Balzac did not shock him; he saw in the stupendous Comedie humaine a form of that art which he himself loved so intensely and so faithfully.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theophile Gautier's Short Stories: The Fleece of Gold, the Dead Leman, Poems, Etc It was on this disappointing experience that Gautier built up the pretty tale Of The Fleece of Gold in which the hero is, naturally enough, a painter in search of just the same rarity, and, like Gautier, finds one specimen only. To have made the heroine of the tale a mere blowsy kitchen-wench would not, how ever, have suited the author's temperament. Gautier above all things was an artist: a lover of the Beautiful in its most refined and most exquisite form: quite capable, therefore, of idealising the somewhat gross type he had come upon in Valenciennes into the ethereal and delicate maiden engaged in the congenial and appropriate occupation of making lace instead Of sweeping the gutter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 1: Mademoiselle De Maupin, Parts I and II Mademoiselle de Maupin, which called out, on its appearance, a storm of mingled reprobation and admira tion, provoked then mainly by the Preface, later by the story itself, and the echoes of which have not altogether died out in our day. In those debonair times, when Realists and Naturalists had not yet appeared upon the scene and served up slices of life to a public whose vitiated taste refuses all but the gamiest and most highly seasoned works of an epoch of decadence, the book was looked upon as a shameless exposition of sensuality by some, as a masterpiece of art and audacity by others. The brilliant Preface, with its virulently sarcastic attacks upon critics and the old-maidish prudery of the bourgeois, was, however, the chief offence, the story itself attracting little attention outside the sacred circle.
