Description
A collection of essays by Marguerite Yourcenar, showcasing her profound thinking and beautiful writing style. This volume includes all of her essays, except for one, which were previously published in separate volumes. The essays explore various themes that interested and concerned this major contemporary writer, including aesthetic questions related to art, music, and literature, as well as philosophical reflections on existence, the passing of time, religion, beauty, and the transformative experience of travel. The result is a complex work that delves into the depths of human nature, with all its passions and struggles. Marguerite Yourcenar was a renowned writer who began writing at a young age and continued to write with growing prestige until her death. She lived in both France and the United States, and was elected a member of the Academy in 1980.
