Uncommon as a hardcover with DJ. Amantine (also "Amandine")…Aurore Lucile Dupin, later Baroness Dudevant (1804-1876), best known by her pseudonym George Sand was a French novelist. She is considered by some a feminist although she refused to join this movement. She is regarded as the first French female novelist to gain a major reputation. Sand's father, Maurice Dupin, was a distant relative of Louis XVI and grandson of the Marshal General of France. Sand was born in Paris but raised for much of her childhood by her grandmother, Marie Aurore de Saxe, Madame Dupin de Franceuil, at her grandmother's estate, Nohant, in the French region of Berry. She later used the setting in many of her novels. It has been said that her upbringing was quite liberal. In 1822, at age 19, she married Baron Casimir Dudevant, illegitimate son of Baron Jean-François Dudevant. She and Dudevant had two children: Maurice and Solange. In early 1831 she left her prosaic husband and entered upon a four- or five-year period of "romantic rebellion." In 1835 she was legally separated from Dudevant and took her children with her. Sand conducted affairs of varying duration with Jules Sandeau, Prosper Mérimée, Alfred de Musset, Louis-Chrystosome Michel, Pierre-François Bocage, Félicien Mallefille and Frédéric Chopin. Later in life, she corresponded with Gustave Flaubert. Despite their obvious differences in temperament and aesthetic preference, they eventually became close friends. In Majorca one can still visit the (then abandoned) Carthusian monastery of Valldemossa, where she spent the winter of 1838-39 with Chopin and her children. Her most widely used quote is "There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved." She was known well in far reaches of the world, and her social practices, her writings and her beliefs prompted much commentary, often by other luminaries in the world of arts and letters.
