(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
Balzac considered it the most important French novel of his time. André Gide later deemed it the greatest of all French novels, and Henry James judged it to be a masterpiece. Now, in a major literary event, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and distinguished translator Richard Howard presents a new rendition of Stendhal's epic tale of romance, adventure, and court intrigue set in early nineteenth-century Italy.
The Charterhouse of Parma chronicles the exploits of Fabrizio del Dongo, an ardent young aristocrat who joins Napoleon's army just before the Battle of Waterloo. Yet perhaps the novel's most unforgettable characters are the hero's beautiful aunt, the alluring Duchess of Sanseverina, and her lover, Count Mosca, who plot to further Fabrizio's political career at the treacherous court of Parma in a sweeping story that illuminates an entire epoch of European history.
"Stendhal has written The Prince up to date, the novel that Machiavelli would write if he were living banished from Italy in the nineteenth century," noted Balzac in his famous review of The Charterhouse of Parma. "Never before have the hearts of princes, ministers, courtiers, and women been depicted like this. . . . One sees perfection in every detail. . . . [It] has the magnitude of a canvas fifty feet by thirty, and at the same time the manner, the execution, is Dutch in its minuteness. . . . The Charterhouse of Parma often contains a whole book in a single page. . . . It is a masterpiece."
This edition includes original illustrations by Robert Andrew Parker and Notes and a Translator's Afterword by Richard Howard.

评分自从翻开这本厚实的小说那天，我就对它产生了浓厚的好奇。凭心而论，“修道院”一词实在不算吸引人，我也并没有因为这个里生活较远的词而有精力去搭理此书。真正让我感到好奇的，是写在红底白字的大标题下面的那行小字，我看到了一个大名鼎鼎的名字——司汤达。 司汤达...
评分看这书我感到隔膜，大概因为我对那段历史缺乏必要的了解。众所周知资产阶级自由主义终于战胜了专制的君主主义这是历史的进步，虽然作者对于这些自由主义分子表现出了明显好感，但是以我现在的观点来看，仍不明白躲在这勇猛正直的资产阶级后面的阴谋、金钱、自妄，有什么值得欣...
评分终于读完了《帕尔马修道院》，却对故事的结尾不太满意。或许是自己思维方式的不同导致的吧。最后，法布利斯和克莱莉娅虽然仍爱着彼此，却没有“修成正果”。我所谓的“修成正果”是结婚，而“情人”一词在我眼里并不能像“婚姻”一样带给人安心和踏实。克莱莉娅成了法布利斯的...
