HB RED BOARDS FINE PP153 DW FINE 8V0 Critical examination of the French poet.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'La Rochefoucauld' is a comprehensive scholarly examination of the life and literary contributions of François de La Rochefoucauld, one of the most influential figures of 17th-century French literature. Author Henry A. Grubbs Jr. provides a meticulous analysis of the man behind the 'Maximes,' exploring the psychological depth and cynical wit that defined his observations on human nature, vanity, and self-love.The work delves into the historical and social context of the French court, illustrating how La Rochefoucauld's experiences during the Fronde and his interactions within the prestigious salons of Paris shaped his concise and piercing prose. This study evaluates the stylistic evolution of the 'Maximes' and their lasting impact on the moralist tradition. By situating the work within the broader intellectual landscape of the Grand Siècle, Grubbs offers readers a deeper understanding of the philosophical underpinnings and literary craftsmanship that have kept the work of 'La Rochefoucauld' relevant for centuries. It serves as an essential resource for students of French literature, history, and philosophy, highlighting the enduring power of the aphorism as a tool for social and personal critique.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
