# Journal des Goncourt (Troisième série, troisième volume)

_Mémoires de la vie littéraire_

By Edmond de Goncourt and Jules de Goncourt.

"Journal des Goncourt (Troisième série, troisième volume)" by Edmond and Jules de Goncourt is a diary written collaboratively from 1850 to 1896. This candid chronicle captures the literary and artistic world of Paris, documenting bitter rivalries, friendships, and café conversations that shaped the byzantine literary hierarchy. Through dual dictation and meticulous observation, the brothers recorded intimate details of their encounters with contemporaries like Flaubert, Zola, and Daudet. Their unflinching commentary on failures, successes, and borrowed ideas created both a remarkable historical document and strained relationships with surviving friends.
