Autor

Charles de Bernard du Grail de la Villette (1804–1850), known predominantly as Charles de Bernard, was a French novelist and man of letters whose literary work reflected the complexities and mores of the bourgeois society of his time. Born on February 24, 1804, in Besançon, Bernard led a life woven with literature and social commentary. His discerning eye and sharp wit were hallmarks of his writing, earning him recognition within the literary milieu. A key work in his oeuvre is 'Gerfaut — Complete', where readers glimpse the critical examination of romantic and psychological aspects harmoniously blended with irony and social satire. His narratological precision alongside the interplay of passion and analysis of the human condition distinguish Bernard's work, thereby contributing a significant voice to the French romantics. The intricacies of love, the subtexts of class structures, and the ironies inherent in human relations pervaded his narratives. Although less known today, Bernard's literary contributions remain an essential link in the chain of 19th-century French literature, offering valuable insights into the social fabric of his era. His portrayal of characters and settings often served as a modest mirror to the vicissitudes of life during a time of great cultural and social transition in France.
