Warsaw, 1991. PIW. 15x20.5 cm, 667 pages, hardcover with dust jacket. Very good condition.
One of François-René de Chateaubriand’s most important works, combining autobiography with an account of the turbulent era of the French Revolution, Napoleon, and the Bourbon Restoration. The author reflects on his own life, travels, and political activities, while also sketching portraits of his contemporaries and painting a picture of the transformations in France and Europe at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. Selection, translation, and commentary by Joanna Guze.
