Chapter 100 Diary of Brother Gong Guoer

Diary of Brother Gong Guoer I seem to have only read one novel co-authored by French brother Gong Guoer, and this was many years ago The thing is, I was still young, so I still have such a good appetite.In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't look at it, because at that time What kind of novel I was reading and what the content was about, I have long since forgotten all about it. It can be seen that there is really no loss in not reading such novels.If other novels, then no Of course, just to cite a familiar example, if it is "Young Werther" "Trouble", after reading it, who will forget it?

Therefore, those novels co-authored by Brother Gong Guoer really don’t matter.As for the two of them I wrote that diary, which is worth reading. It has been said more than once that the two brothers have cooperated in more than 50 years in more than 40 years. Of all the works, the best and most important is actually this diary written by the two of them.The reason here is very Mysterious and very simple, in a word, the two are lovers of literature and art, they are writers and artists, but they are not Literary writer.Those works of theirs were not written because they had to be written.they don't have to rely on

Writing to make a living, and there is no passion to write.The two brothers cooperated again and again to write down those many works. Most of the works are due to frequent contacts with those contemporary literati, and I am happy to see them, and I am unwilling to keep quiet. silent.Therefore, the works written down are all dispensable works. However, the diaries that the two of them wrote down casually every night were completely different in nature.I We must know that Brother Gongol occupied an important position in the French literary world in the nineteenth century. Because of their rich family background, love of literature and art, and understanding of literature and art, all the people they deal with are contemporary literati.

and artists, and willing to encourage and support new writers, their literary and art salon has become a Parisian art salon. Li's literary center.The two also had a collection habit, and small works of art with oriental colors were popular at that time. People are keen on this, and like to buy and collect fine books, so the diary written under the lamp every night, among them It is full of their contacts with contemporary writers.The statements, activities, proclivities and Anecdotes, as well as their own reviews of contemporary people, books and works of art. Brother Gong Guoer is not a first-rate literary and artistic writer, but they have a great influence on literary and artistic works

The insights are brilliant.With this condition, the content of the diaries written by the two brothers is as follows: more fulfilling.The Diary of Brother Congoles will become a work unique in France, it is written by for such reasons. Diary of Brother Gongol, beginning in December 1851 and continuing until 189 six years.However, there is one point that needs to be specially explained: Brother Gong Guoer and Brother Gong are inseparable. of.Both the reputation of their brothers, and the attraction of this diary, are due to the Cooperation.However, on January 2, 1870, his younger brother Juliet Congoles fell ill and wrote

After this day's diary, I never wrote any more, and passed away on June 20.So this The diary was interrupted for some time, and then continued by my brother Edmund alone, until the end of the day. Eighty-nine six years. The anthology of Gong Guoer’s diary that we read today always selects the period when his brother died as end.This is because the two brothers are inseparable in terms of literary and artistic achievements.1870 The future Gong Guoer diary, it is only Edmond's personal diary, it is no longer Brother Gong Guoer's day. Forget it. Few people have ever read the entire diary of Gongol.Not only because of the volumes of the whole,

Moreover, because many of them involved the privacy of the people at that time, I was afraid that the descendants of these related people would be embarrassed if they read it. So it has been kept unpublished until now.The Diary of Goncourt that is in use today, whether it is in the original French The original version or foreign language translations are quite abridged, but not all. Jules Congoles died prematurely in 1870, but his brother Edmond lived twenty-six years longer. He didn't die until 1896, and lived to be more than seventy years old.In his later years, he donated his private wealth as a foundation,

Organize a society to encourage the writing of young writers.This society is today the famous Gong Gore Society.For a period of time, it was in a state of opposition to the French Academy, with strict barriers, and a respected The old one is heavy, and one represents the new one.The Gongol literary prize established by them is still the French A writer considered the highest honor.Brother Gong Guoer's diary, according to the predetermined plan of his brother Edmond, It was originally stipulated that it would not be published until twenty years after his death.But later, I couldn't beat my friend

At the request of friends, especially at the instigation of Daudet, Edmund had selected a part to be published first. Edmund wrote in the preface to their diary: "It can be said that the entire manuscript was dictated by the two of us, and his brother alone executed it. written with a pen.That's exactly the method we use to write these memoirs.When my brother died, I thought our literary work was over because I decided to put our diaries together On January 20, 1870, the pen was not written.For his hand has written on this day His last word. " But at last Edmund resumed writing, and continued until 1896.
