By Madame de Staël.

"Corinne; ou, l'Italie" by Madame de Staël is a novel published in 1807. It tells the love story between Corinne, a celebrated Italian poetess, and Lord Oswald Nelvil, a melancholic Scottish nobleman traveling through Italy. As Corinne guides Oswald through Rome's monuments and culture, their growing attraction confronts the tension between Italian freedom and English propriety. Both harbor mysterious reasons for resisting their feelings, setting the stage for a romance shadowed by secrets and conflicting worlds. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
