Abstract

George Sand était profondément attachée à son terroir. Elle tente d’y gérer ses terres avec habileté et innovation – sans beaucoup de succès d’ailleurs. Elle ne se contente pas d’y trouver un refuge dont la quiétude est propre au travail littéraire, qui lui assure l’essentiel de ses revenus… Observatrice des moeurs rurales, pionnière de l’ethnologie, elle y trouve l’inspiration de ses « romans champêtres », mais elle y élabore aussi une réflexion politique et une utopie sociale. Elle y crée un lieu de sociabilité d’où elle construit un réseau d’amitiés, de collaborations et d’influences en France et à l’étranger. Ce réseau est particulièrement actif dans les combats de 1848, entretenu fidèlement sous le Second Empire, cultivé encore après la grande désillusion de 1871, sans qu’elle perde foi dans l’issue des combats de son temps pour les libertés sociales, politiques et nationales. Fruit d’un colloque tenu à l’occasion du bicentaire de George Sand, cet ouvrage étudie les rapports privilégiés que l’écrivain a entretenus avec son terroir. La Mare au Diable, le moulin d’Angibault, le manoir des terribles Mauprat et autres lieux actuels du tourisme sandien véhiculent en effet une mémoire complexe – terroir réel, fiction littéraire, espace utopique d’une société à reconstruire –, trop longtemps méconnue.

Les conditions de la production littéraire et la réception de l'œuvre en Amérique, en Asie, en Europe, ont aussi fait l'object d'études."

Abstract

George Sand was the most famous-and 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.

Abstract

Whereas the centrality of femininity to nineteenth-century French fiction has been the focus of widespread critical attention, masculinity has, until recently, received little sustained treatment in either the literary or socio-historical domains. In this book, Nigel Harkness uses the fiction of George Sand (1804-1876), the pre-eminent woman writer of the period, to explore questions of masculinity as they pertain to the nineteenth-century French novel, and to map out new approaches to the study of literary masculinity. Drawing on contemporary theories of gender and narrative, Harkness reveals how Sands novels repeatedly focus on a nexus of language, masculinity and power, in which narrative is both a vehicle for the expression of manhood, and a site where masculinity is discursively performed. Masculinity is thus reconfigured in Sands fiction as an identity constituted as much through words as through actions. Analysis of the performances of masculinity staged in Sands novels opens onto an exploration of gendered processes of literary representation: the links between masculinity and the doxa, the equation of writing and power, the homosocial function of acts of narration, and the masculinity of authorship and authority.
