Critical Fictions: Nerval's Les Illumins (Monographs in French Studies, 3)

Critical Fictions: Nerval's Les Illumins (Monographs in French Studies, 3)

This volume sets out to provide the facts concerning Nerval's publication of the collected volume, Les Illumines, including his reasons for doing so at this juncture in his career, and gives outlines of the six previously published pieces Nerval collected together in 1852 to make up the volume. The responses to Les Illumines are assessed on two fronts, with analysis of the critical reviews of Nerval's new text after its publication, and comment on editions and relevant scholorship up to the present day. The collection's intriguing preface, La Biblotheque de mon oncle, is revealed here as a key element for critical readings of the work. Tyer's detailed research invites a reappraisal of Les Illumines, which is not thought on par with the rest of Nerval's mature writing. Yet the fragmentary structures and varying themes are shown, on closer investigation, to invite synthetic and comparative readings of the text as a complete whole.
