August Strindberg (Auteur)

Résumé

The narrator of The Inferno-ostensibly August Strindberg himself-has not had an easy recent past, and a move to Paris is not helping.

Biographie

Dramaturge, romancier, nouvelliste, essayiste, peintre à l'occasion, et ardent polémiste - August Strindberg - né en 1849 et mort en 1912 à Stockholm - est assurément le génie phare de la Suède en pleine révolution industrielle et sociale. Diversement proche des Tolstoï, Ibsen, Zola, ou Nietzsche, l'auteur de Mademoiselle Julie semble rassembler, en une seule et folle entreprise de démolition des préjugés et des vanités, l'énergie créatrice de ses grands contemporains pour accomplir une ?uvre nourrie de critique sociale radicale, d'investigation des abîmes de l'inconscient et de mise en activité volcanique d'un imaginaire réaliste toujours aux limites de l'expressionnisme visionnaire et torturé qui magnétise l'époque.

Détail

The narrator of The Inferno-ostensibly August Strindberg himself-has not had an easy recent past, and a move to Paris is not helping. As his mania overtakes his ability to function in the society of artists, writers, scientists and philosophers he'd like to be part of, he turns to more unconventional methods to help make sense of his world.
Written in diary form, The Inferno is a semi-autobiographical work that blends self-deprecating humour with a whirl of neurosis and attempted rationalisation. The novel, with a certain amount of exaggeration for literary effect, charts two years of Strindberg's life in the 1890s. Presented here is Claud Field's 1913 translation from the original French.
