Synopsis

Nineteenth Century Collections Online: European Literature, 1790-1840: The Corvey Collection includes the full-text of more than 9,500 English, French and German titles. The collection is sourced from the remarkable library of Victor Amadeus, whose Castle Corvey collection was one of the most spectacular discoveries of the late 1970s. The Corvey Collection comprises one of the most important collections of Romantic era writing in existence anywhere -- including fiction, short prose, dramatic works, poetry, and more -- with a focus on especially difficult-to-find works by lesser-known, historically neglected writers.

The Corvey library was built during the last half of the 19th century by Victor and his wife Elise, both bibliophiles with varied interests. The collection thus contains everything from novels and short stories to belles lettres and more populist works, and includes many exceedingly rare works not available in any other collection from the period. These invaluable, sometimes previously unknown works are of particular interest to scholars and researchers.

European Literature, 1790-1840: The Corvey Collection includes:

* Novels and Gothic Novels
* Short Stories
* Belles-Lettres
* Short Prose Forms
* Dramatic Works
* Poetry
* Anthologies
* And more

Selected with the guidance of an international team of expert advisors, these primary sources are invaluable for a wide range of academic disciplines and areas of study, providing never before possible research opportunities for one of the most studied historical periods.

About the Author

Edmond François Valentin About, né le 14 février 1828 à Dieuze (Moselle) et mort le 16 janvier 1885 à Paris, est un écrivain, journaliste et critique d'art français, membre de l’Académie française. Fils d'épicier, il fait ses études au petit séminaire, puis entre au lycée Charlemagne où il devient un élève brillant et remporte le prix d'honneur de philosophie au Concours général. Il entre ensuite à l'École normale supérieure en 1848 et est reçu premier à l'agrégation de lettres de 1851[1] Il est nommé en 1851 membre de l'École française d'Athènes et séjourne deux ans en Grèce en compagnie de l'architecte Charles Garnier et du peintre Paul-Alfred de Curzon. Il séjourne en Égypte en 1867-1868. Il participe aussi au voyage inaugural de l'Orient-Express en 1883. Agacé par les outrances du philhellénisme alors à la mode et marqué par le mishellénisme de ses maîtres du petit séminaire, il tire de chacun de ses voyages des ouvrages satiriques marquants. La Grèce contemporaine (1854) remporte un grand succès tout en insistant sur l'écart entre le mythe grec fondé sur l'Antiquité et la réalité contemporaine. Le Roi des montagnes ridiculise le mythe romantique du pallikare, guerrier-bandit héros de la guerre d'indépendance grecque. Le Fellah décrit comment un paysan égyptien élevé en Europe devient une personnalité dans son pays et finit par épouser une Anglaise, fascinée par l'exotisme. De Pontoise à Stamboul parodie le célèbre Itinéraire de Paris à Jérusalem de Chateaubriand
