virtually unknown >Is the rightful heir of the French moraliste tradition>An elitist vulgarisateur, he would look at you with disgust as he initiates you into the cult of good taste >Perfected monographs, he KNOWS his writers. Villon, Benjamin Constant, de Retz.. EtcWouldn't expect nu/lit/ to care but long time no post so I thought just maybe. That, and the fact he's nowhere near translated adequately or at all for that matter.
OP here. He does look goofy as hell. Try to look past that, anon. I trust you have it in you.
>>25387325He's holding in a laugh. Who is he laughing at? You? Me? Himself?
>>25387430"Tous tant que nous sommes, les plus grands et les moindres, nous sommes les etables du plaisir et de l'amour-propre, pleines de fumier sensuel et de toutes les varietes les plus infectes"
bump?
I've been meaning to read Le Voyage du Condottière since I heard Nabe say good things about him but I haven't gotten around to start yet
>>25387325It's kind of impressive, ever aspect of him is maximally goofy
>>25387815Le voyageur est encore ce qui importe le plus dans un voyage, that is to say: whenever you're ready.
OP again. I really meant by vulgarisateur the simple (read: crystal clear, grounded, baroque(?)) style of writing he employs. He's actually an elitist through and through. Obnoxiously so.
