(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
Balzac considered it the most important French novel of his time. André Gide later deemed it the greatest of all French novels, and Henry James judged it to be a masterpiece. Now, in a major literary event, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and distinguished translator Richard Howard presents a new rendition of Stendhal's epic tale of romance, adventure, and court intrigue set in early nineteenth-century Italy.
The Charterhouse of Parma chronicles the exploits of Fabrizio del Dongo, an ardent young aristocrat who joins Napoleon's army just before the Battle of Waterloo. Yet perhaps the novel's most unforgettable characters are the hero's beautiful aunt, the alluring Duchess of Sanseverina, and her lover, Count Mosca, who plot to further Fabrizio's political career at the treacherous court of Parma in a sweeping story that illuminates an entire epoch of European history.
"Stendhal has written The Prince up to date, the novel that Machiavelli would write if he were living banished from Italy in the nineteenth century," noted Balzac in his famous review of The Charterhouse of Parma. "Never before have the hearts of princes, ministers, courtiers, and women been depicted like this. . . . One sees perfection in every detail. . . . [It] has the magnitude of a canvas fifty feet by thirty, and at the same time the manner, the execution, is Dutch in its minuteness. . . . The Charterhouse of Parma often contains a whole book in a single page. . . . It is a masterpiece."
This edition includes original illustrations by Robert Andrew Parker and Notes and a Translator's Afterword by Richard Howard.

看这书我感到隔膜，大概因为我对那段历史缺乏必要的了解。众所周知资产阶级自由主义终于战胜了专制的君主主义这是历史的进步，虽然作者对于这些自由主义分子表现出了明显好感，但是以我现在的观点来看，仍不明白躲在这勇猛正直的资产阶级后面的阴谋、金钱、自妄，有什么值得欣...
評分这是一本妙不可言的书，比《红与黑》更胜一筹，就其艺术上来讲，《红与黑》的成功有着取巧的成分，而这本书，则是放在任何时代，都会闪光的作品。
評分司汤达是个坚决的女权主义者，又不可思议的是一位彻头彻尾的浪漫主义者。他号召妇女解放不能仅以自由的名字泛泛而论，还应追求个人幸福。爱情不会使人失去什么。当男女平等时，她对他的理解程度越深，爱情也就越真诚。 司汤达给他故事中的女人设立了可能遇到的困难： 当她在一...
評分巴尔扎克、梅里美和司汤达是三位同时代的法国艺术大师，拿他们三人的艺术风格作一个比喻，即使这个比喻不尽恰当吧，也不会是毫无意义的。《人间喜剧》像气势雄伟、色彩绚烂、包罗万象的油画。作者以宏伟气魄、栩栩如生地，但是不无夸张地塑造了许多典型人物，让读者看到了一个...
