Le rouge et le noir: chronique du XIXe siècle
by Stendhal
"Le rouge et le noir: chronique du XIXe siècle" by Stendhal is a novel published in 1830. It follows Julien Sorel, an ambitious young man from provincial France who dreams of becoming a new Napoleon. Through his positions as tutor and secretary, he enters bourgeois and aristocratic society, where he becomes entangled in passionate affairs with two women: Madame de Rênal and Mathilde de La Mole. His rise from carpenter's son to nobleman tests the boundaries between ambition, hypocrisy, and authentic feeling in nineteenth-century France.
