Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Love and Other Stories: From De Maupassant To mention the short story is to name de Maupassant: - in France where this fascinating form of literary art originated and where it has long been cultivated with success, his primacy is undisputed. French critics distinguish the Maupassant conte of fifteen hundred words or so from the nouvelle, or more extended short story. The former is regarded as Maupassant´s special achievement - in the words of Marcel Prevost, his "most personal, most definitive and most excellent work." Indeed, M. Prevost declares that the Maupassant conte - brief, realistic, picturesque - is without literary ancestors in France; so that in form and compass no less than in the inner stigmata of the work, it may be regarded as originating with the "disciple" of Flaubert. The stories brought together in this volume are but a small portion of de Maupassant´s work, yet it is hoped that they will give the general reader a fairer notion of his art than at present obtains among that very large public to whom French is a sealed book, and who have had access to him only in crude and disfiguring translations.
