Pour l'expédition nous avons besoin de votre N° de tél et de l'adresse de livraison(demandés par Mondial Relay). Merci d'avance Trois biographies monumentales d'écrivains français Ce volum…e réunit trois œuvres majeures d'André Maurois. Il contient les biographies de Balzac, de Victor Hugo et des Dumas. Ces récits retracent des vies d'exception. Ils explorent le lien entre le génie créateur et l'existence personnelle. Robert Kopp signe la préface de cette édition. Prométhée, ou la vie tourmentée d'Honoré de Balzac Maurois dépeint Balzac comme un titan de la littérature. Il montre son ambition démesurée et ses dettes chroniques. Le livre analyse la création de La Comédie Humaine. Il révèle les passions et les échecs de l'écrivain. Cette vie ressemble à un roman balzacien elle-même. Olympio, ou le siècle de Victor Hugo La biographie d'Hugo couvre tout le XIXe siècle. Maurois suit le poète de son enfance à son apothéose. Il montre l'exil politique et l'engagement républicain. L'analyse des grandes œuvres comme Les Misérables est approfondie. Le livre peint un monument national dans son humanité. Les trois Dumas, une saga familiale unique Cette partie raconte l'histoire de trois générations. Le général Dumas, héros de la Révolution, ouvre le récit. Son fils, Alexandre Dumas père, devient un romancier mondialement célèbre. L'auteur de Monte-Cristo mène une vie extravagante. Son fils, Alexandre Dumas fils, connaît aussi un grand succès. Il écrit La Dame aux camélias et des pièces morales. L'art biographique d'André Maurois Maurois excelle dans la narration et l'analyse psychologique. Il mêle les faits historiques aux anecdotes révélatrices. Son style est vivant, clair et passionnant. Ces biographies sont devenues des classiques du genre. Elles s'adressent aux amateurs de littérature et d'histoire.
