The "Modern Literatures in Perspective" series aims to help the reader study texts in isolation and in context by selecting the most representative reactions to the texts, from their first appearance, to date. The historical and cultural context in which each text was produced is also outlined.
Both critic and writer, Stendhal has now become established as one of realism''s founding fathers. Dr Pearson''s book maps out, for the first time, the critical reception of Stendhal''s two most widely read novels, The Red and the Black and The Charterhouse of Parma since their publication in 1830 and 1839 respectively. In part one he provides generous samples of the most important nineteenth-century responses to the novels, almost all of them translated into English for the first time. Part two presents a full range of the most authoritative and influential readings since 1945, which illustrate a wide variety of critical approaches.
