200024620AB2000. München Dt. Taschenbuch-Verl. 2000. 8°. 645 Seiten. Softcover / Kartoniert. Sehr guter neuwertiger Zustand. Charles Augustin Sainte-Beuve 23 December 1804 in Boulogne-sur-Mer 13 October 1869 in Paris was a literary critic of French literature. Friedrich Nietzsche actually an avowed opponent of Sainte-Beuve prompted in 1880 the wife of his friend Franz Overbeck Ida Overbeck to translate the Causeries du lundi into German. Until then Sainte-Beuve was never published in German despite his great importance in France since it was considered representative of a French way of thinking detested in Germany. Ida Overbeck's translation appeared in 1880 under the title Die Menschen des XVIII. Jahrhunderts Men of the 18th Century. Nietzsche wrote to Ida Overbeck on August 18 1880: "An hour ago I received the Die Menschen des XVIII. Jahrhunderts . It is just a marvellous book. I think I've cried." Ida Overbeck's translation is an important document of the cultural transfer between Germany and France in a period of strong tension but it was largely ignored. It was not until 2014 that a critical and annotated edition of this translation appeared in print. Wikipedia paperback

Negley 1551; Fortunati/Trousson 489f. <br><br>Paul et Virginie or Paul and Virginia is a novel by Jacques-Henri Bernardin de Saint-Pierre first published in 1788. The novel's title characters are very good friends since birth who fall in love. The story is set in the island of Mauritius under French rule then named Ile de France which the author had visited. Written on the eve of the French Revolution the novel is hailed as Bernardin's finest work. It records the fate of a child of nature corrupted by the false artificial sentimentality that prevailed at the time among the upper classes of France. <br><br> Saint-Pierre attacked the issues of divided social classes present in eighteenth century French society. In Paul et Virginie Saint-Pierre describes perfect equality occurring on Mauritius where inhabitants share the same possessions have equal amounts of land and all work to cultivate it. They live in harmony without violence or unrest. These beliefs of Saint-Pierre's echo those of Enlightenment philosophers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau. <br> The book also presents an Enlightenment view of religion: that God or "Providence" had perfectly designed the world to be harmonious and pleasing.
