Summary

Chateaubriand (1768-1848), figure de proue du Romantisme français, homme de lettres mais également ministre et ambassadeur, fait partie des figures incontournables du XIXe siècle. De toutes ses œuvres, qui connurent une indéniable gloire de son temps, la seule à véritablement passer à la postérité fut sa colossale geste autobiographique, Les Mémoires d'outre-tombe. À la fois spectateur et acteur de son temps, dans une prose parfois éblouissante, il brosse à la fois son portrait et celui de son époque.

Daniel Mesguich en rend à merveille le phrasé et fait revivre à nos oreilles la quintessence de ce sommet littéraire du XIXe siècle.
