Overview

La biografía de una de las grandes figuras históricas de Europa, de la mano de un escritor excepcional, Stendhal. -Traducción de Consuelo Berges

Introducción del crítico literario Ignacio Echevarría

Este volumen reúne los dos intentos de Stendhal de escribir la biografía de Napoleón. Durante años se dedicó a reunir el material necesario para llevar a cabo este gran proyecto, pero no llegó a terminarlo. Empezó a escribir Vida de Napoleón en 1817 cuando, a pesar de que Bonaparte ya se encontraba en el exilio, Stendhal todavía creía en su empresa. Esta primera biografía se centra en sus hazañas militares y en su experiencia como combatiente en las guerras napoleónicas. En Memorias de Napoleón, escritas en 1832, desengañado por una Francia que parecía haber olvidado el canto a la libertad, se centra en el símbolo que supuso el personaje y no duda en afirmar que aborrece al tirano, pero adora poéticamente su grandeza. En palabras del propio autor, Napoleón «se trata del hombre más grande aparecido en el mundo desde César».
 
La presente edición incluye una magnífica introducción de Ignacio Echevarría que nos acerca a la intimidad histórica con la que Stendhal dibuja el retrato de Napoleón. El texto ha sido vertido al español por Consuelo Bergés, reconocida experta en Stendhal y traductora de la obra completa.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


The biography of one of Europe’s great historical figures, chronicled by one of its most exceptional writers, Stendhal. -Translated by Consuelo Berges

With an introduction by literary critic Ignacio Echevarría

Stendhal made two attempts to write the biography of Napoleon Bonaparte, and both are included in this volume. Despite years compiling the material for this daunting project, Stendhal was unable to complete it. He began writing A Life of Napoleon in 1817, when he was a fervent admirer of the exiled leader. This first biographical essay recounts Napoleon’s military exploits and the author’s experiences as a combatant in his campaign. By the time he wrote Memoires sur Napoléon, in 1832, in a France that seemed to have forgotten the cry of liberty, Stendhal focused more on Napoleon as a symbol, disavowing the tyrant but exalting the poetic aspects of his greatness. For Napoleon, in Stendhal’s assessment, “was the greatest man to come into the world since Caesar.”
 
This edition includes a magnificent introduction by Ignacio Echevarría that reveals the historical forces that influenced this portrait of Napoleon. The text is translated by Consuelo Bergés, a renowned expert on Stendhal and the translator of his collected works.
