About the Book

I L'Orient et l'Occident sont aux prises - Le sang coule Maître Alfred L'Ambert, avant le coup fatal qui le contraignit à changer de nez, était assurément le plus brillant notaire de France. En ce temps-là, il avait trente-deux ans; sa taille était noble, ses yeux grands et bien fendus; son front olympien, sa barbe et ses cheveux du blond le plus aimable. Son nez (premier du nom) se recourbait en bec d'aigle. Me croira qui voudra, mais la cravate blanche lui allait dans la perfection. Est-ce parce qu'il la portait depuis l'âge le plus tendre, ou parce qu'il se fournissait chez la bonne faiseuse ? Je suppose que c'était pour ces deux raisons à la fois.
About the Author: Edmond François Valentin About, né le 14 février 1828 à Dieuze (Moselle) et mort le 16 janvier 1885 à Paris, est un écrivain, journaliste et critique d'art français, membre de l'Académie française. Fils d'épicier, il fait ses études au petit séminaire, puis entre au lycée Charlemagne où il devient un élève brillant et remporte le prix d'honneur de philosophie au Concours général. Il entre ensuite à l'École normale supérieure en 1848 et est reçu premier à l'agrégation de lettres de 1851[1] Il est nommé en 1851 membre de l'École française d'Athènes et séjourne deux ans en Grèce en compagnie de l'architecte Charles Garnier et du peintre Paul-Alfred de Curzon. Il séjourne en Égypte en 1867-1868. Il participe aussi au voyage inaugural de l'Orient-Express en 1883. Agacé par les outrances du philhellénisme alors à la mode et marqué par le mishellénisme de ses maîtres du petit séminaire, il tire de chacun de ses voyages des ouvrages satiriques marquants. La Grèce contemporaine (1854) remporte un grand succès tout en insistant sur l'écart entre le mythe grec fondé sur l'Antiquité et la réalité contemporaine. Le Roi des montagnes ridiculise le mythe romantique du pallikare, guerrier-bandit héros de la guerre d'indépendance grecque. Le Fellah décrit comment un paysan égyptien élevé en Europe devient une personnalité dans son pays et finit par épouser une Anglaise, fascinée par l'exotisme. De Pontoise à Stamboul parodie le célèbre Itinéraire de Paris à Jérusalem de Chateaubriand
