Prosper Mérimée (1803-1870), "French dramatist and master of the short story whose works-romantic in theme but classical in style-were a renewal of classicism in a romantic age.Mérimée's short stories, many of which are mysteries, best illustrate his imagination and somber temperament. Spain and Russia were his principal literary sources, and he was the first interpreter of Russian literature in France. Aleksandr Pushkin was his master, especially for his themes of violence and cruelty and the human psychology behind them. In one of Mérimée's best-known stories, Mateo Falcone (1829), a father kills a son for betraying the family honor. The collection Mosaïque (1833) was followed by his most famous novellas: Colomba (1840), the story of a young Corsican girl who forces her brother to commit murder for the sake of a vendetta, and Carmen (1845), in which an unfaithful Gypsy girl is killed by a soldier who loves her" (Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literature).
