Charles Nodier

Infernaliana

Jean-François Les Bas Bleus raconte l'histoire d'un jeune homme très brillant académiquement... mais devenu la risée des enfants de son village car il est incapable de s'exprimer clairement sur les sujets les plus élémentaires (comme la météo par example). Il doit son surnom aux bas bleus qu'il porte en permanence mais le mot « bas-bleu » est aussi un terme péjoratif qui désigne les gens de lettres. En réalité, l'apparente folie de Jean-François est née d'une bien triste histoire... et cache un très lourd secret : le jeune homme possède un don peu commun...

La Hada de las migajas

Charles Nodies (Besancon, 1780-París, 1844). Escritor francés. Hizo de su salón, en el Arsenal, el centro de la vida literaria en París y del movimiento romántico. Consciente de la importancia del sueño, escribió sus Cuentos, donde lo fantástico se mezcla con el humor y con la emoción, como en "El hada de las migajas" (1832), en la que la locura de los "lunáticos" aparece como la manera de unir el sueño y la realidad. "El sueño -decía- es el estado más lúcido del pensamiento".

Charles Nodier was one of the first populariser of the literary vampire story: Smarra, or the Demons of the Night(1821) is the most notable and horrific of his stories. Nodier also carried forward the French tradition of literary fairy tales, which he enriched with the fantastic extravagance of the romantics. The best of these half fairy and half fantasy tales is Trilby, or the imp of Argyll(1822), which is set in Scotland.
