{"product_id":"theophile-gautier-henry-james-9781162713533","title":"Theophile Gautier","description":"The book \"\"Theophile Gautier\"\" by James Henry is a biography that explores the life and works of the French writer and critic, Theophile Gautier. Gautier was a prominent figure in the French literary scene of the 19th century and is known for his contributions to the Romantic movement.The book delves into Gautier's early life, his education, and his early literary career. It also explores his relationships with other writers and artists of the time, including Victor Hugo and Charles Baudelaire. Additionally, the book examines Gautier's critical writings and his impact on French literature.James Henry's biography provides a comprehensive overview of Gautier's life and work, offering insights into his literary achievements and his contributions to French culture. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in French literature and the Romantic movement.There is, perhaps, scant apparent logic in treating a closed career more tenderly than an open one; but we suspect it belongs to the finer essence of good criticism to do so, and, at any rate, we find our judgment of the author of the Voyage en Espagne and the Capitaine Fracasse turning altogether to unprotesting kindness. We had a vague consciousness of lurking objections; but on calling them to appear, they gave no answer. Gautier's death, indeed, in the nature of things could not but be touching, and dispose one to large allowances.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Henry James\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1162713534\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781162713533\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kessinger Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 7.50w x 0.05d","brand":"Henry James","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48436027392255,"sku":"9781162713533","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1781dc4e-dd73-4266-a53c-a4e1463ddb4e.jpg?v=1777154289","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theophile-gautier-henry-james-9781162713533","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
