Armance

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Armance' is the debut novel of the celebrated French author Stendhal, offering a profound exploration of love, social duty, and psychological torment in Restoration-era France. The story follows Octave de Malivert, a wealthy and brilliant young aristocrat who is nonetheless detached from the world around him. His life takes a transformative turn when he falls for his cousin, Armance de Zohiloff. While their affection is mutual, the relationship is haunted by a mysterious and unspoken secret that Octave harbors, a burden that prevents him from finding true happiness.Set against a backdrop of Parisian high society and the rigid expectations of the nobility, 'Armance' blends a delicate romance with sharp social critique. Stendhal's masterful use of interior monologue and psychological depth previews the literary realism that would define his later masterpieces. This work remains a significant piece of world literature, capturing the complexities of the human heart and the tragic consequences of societal and personal constraints. Readers of classic literature will find 'Armance' to be a compelling study of character and a poignant narrative of unfulfilled longing.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
