About the Book

Je venais de finir à vingt-deux ans mes études à l'université de Gottingue. - L'intention de mon père, ministre de l'électeur de ***, était que je parcourusse les pays les plus remarquables de l'Europe. Il voulait ensuite m'appeler auprès de lui, me faire entrer dans le département dont la direction lui était confiée, et me préparer à le remplacer un jour. J'avais obtenu, par un travail assez opiniâtre, au milieu d'une vie très dissipée, des succès qui m'avaient distingué de mes compagnons d'étude, et qui avaient fait concevoir à mon père sur moi des espérances probablement fort exagérées.
About the Author: Benjamin Constant de Rebecque, né à Lausanne le 25 octobre 1767, mort à Paris le 8 décembre 1830, inhumé au cimetière du Père-Lachaise, est un romancier, homme politique, et intellectuel français d'origine vaudoise. Républicain et engagé en politique depuis 1795, il soutiendra le Coup d'État du 18 fructidor an V, puis celui du 18 Brumaire. Il devient sous le Consulat le chef de l'opposition libérale dès 1800. Après avoir quitté la France pour la Suisse puis l'Allemagne, il se rallie à Napoléon pendant les Cent jours, et revient en politique sous la Restauration. Élu député en 1818, il le sera encore à sa mort en 1830. Chef de file de l'opposition libérale, connue sous le nom des Indépendants, il est l'un des orateurs les plus en vue de la Chambre des députés et défend le régime parlementaire. Lors de la Révolution de juillet, il soutient l'installation de Louis-Philippe sur le trône. Auteur de nombreux essais sur des questions politiques ou religieuses, Benjamin Constant est aussi l'auteur de romans psychologiques sur le sentiment amoureux comme Le Cahier rouge (1807), où se retrouvent des éléments autobiographiques de son amour pour Madame de Staël, et Adolphe (1816).
