François-René
Chateaubriand (1768-1848), one of the most famous french romantic writer.
The castle of Combourg,
some kind of massive typical medivial castle was the home of his youth
and perhaps the fisrt birth of his romantic feelings, filled with melancholy
and admiration towards beauty and mystery of Nature.
« Levez-vous
vite, orages désirés, qui devez emporter René dans
les espaces d'une autre vie ! Ainsi disant, je marchais à grands
pas, le visage enflammé, le vent sifflant dans ma chevelure,
ne sentant ni pluie ni frimas, enchanté, tourmenté, et
comme possédé par le démon de mon coeur.
»
Victor Hugo, other famous french writer, wrote
when he was young«To
be Chateaubriand or nothing...»
