Excerpt from Au Théâtre: Réflexions Critiques
Dans un conte, le sujet est peu de chose. Il y a un homme qui parle, il y a un homme qui écoute, et l'auditeur est souriant tant que' le conteur est agréable. Qu'il égaye, qu'il atten drisse, qu'il effraye, peu - importe, s'il plaît; et c'est 1... qui plaît plutôt que son histoire. Ce plaisir est sans fatigue; et, même pour des personnages singuliers ou des événements ex traordinaires, l'esprit goûte une surprise mé nagée qui n'exclut pas le repos. Dans un conte, les événements ne prennent point le visage sé rieux et lent et la gravité presque douloureuse de la nécessité. La suite en est arbitraire et C'est que rien ne doit gâter notre plaisir.
