Pressestimmen
"George Sand is an undeniably impressive achievement. Written in a dynamic style, and deeply researched, this book is not only a biography of a fascinating literary and historical figure but also a compelling work of cultural history." Annie Cohen-Solal, Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, Paris, and University of Caen. "Elizabeth Harlan brings to bright life one of the greatest figures who ever wrote her way into history - in all her genius, passion, and flaws. George Sand is irresistible." Catharine R. Stimpson, New York University"
Kurzbeschreibung
George Sand was the most famous, and the most scandalous, woman in nineteenth-century France. As a writer, she was enormously prolific: she wrote more than ninety novels, thirty-five plays, and thousands of pages of autobiography. She inspired writers as diverse as Flaubert and Proust but is often remembered for her love affairs with such figures as Musset and Chopin. Her affair with Chopin is the most notorious: their nine-year relationship ended in 1847 when Sand began to suspect that the composer had fallen in love with her daughter, Solange. Drawing on archival sources, much of it neglected by Sand's previous biographers, Elizabeth Harlan examines the intertwined issues of maternity and identity that haunt Sand's writing and defined her life. Why was Sand's relationship with her daughter so fraught? Why was a woman so famous for her personal and literary audacity ultimately so conflicted about women's liberation? In an effort to solve the riddle of Sand's identity, Harlan examines a latticework of lives that include Solange, Sand's mother and grandmother, and Sand's own protagonists, whose stories amplify her own.

I have had a long-term obsession with George Sand ---
10. Dezember 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Because I have had an obsession with George Sand for many, many years, ANY book written about her becomes a new passion for me. I found this book particularly interesting because the author quotes George Sand extensively and then analyzes Sand's words for the possible meaning behind them. Granted the explanations of George Sand's own words are the author's point of view, or opinion, but she occasionally brings forth novel ideas of what Sand was perhaps thinking when she wrote about herself and her life -- ideas that I might not have otherwise discerned. Perhaps not every George Sand historian will agree with the author's conclusions, but she (the author) has definitely studied Madame Sand's life in depth; she therefore has an authoritative right to comment in detail on her subject. Regardless of what anyone may believe is the 'truth' about George Sand, as 21st century readers we can only GUESS at what this astounding, prolific writer of the Romantic era actually thought and believed as a woman in 19th century France. I found this book, "George Sand," to be infinitely engrossing and well written. I believe anyone who has ever read a George Sand story or who has even a basic knowledge of this French author would thoroughly enjoy reading Elizabeth Harlan's book.
