"The excellence of Sophie Lewis's translation . . . achieves a fine balance between idiomatic English and the classicism of Stendhal's style." —Times Literary Supplement, "We can trust Stendhal's insights and realise at times that this is, even when being light, a work of great psychological worth and acuity . . . her translation is spot on, using just the right language to carry not only Stendhal's pithiness, but a flavour of the age in which he was writing." —Guardian, "The excellence of Sophie Lewis's translation . . . achieves a fine balance between idiomatic English and the classicism of Stendhal's style." -- Times Literary Supplement, "The excellence of Sophie Lewis's translation . . . achieves a fine balance between idiomatic English and the classicism of Stendhal's style." — Times Literary Supplement, "We can trust Stendhal's insights and realise at times that this is, even when being light, a work of great psychological worth and acuity . . . her translation is spot on, using just the right language to carry not only Stendhal's pithiness, but a flavour of the age in which he was writing." -- Guardian, "The excellence of Sophie Lewis's translation . . . achieves a fine balance between idiomatic English and the classicism of Stendhal's style." -- Times Literary Supplement, "We can trust Stendhal's insights and realise at times that this is, even when being light, a work of great psychological worth and acuity . . . her translation is spot on, using just the right language to carry not only Stendhal's pithiness, but a flavour of the age in which he was writing." — Guardian, "We can trust Stendhal's insights and realise at times that this is, even when being light, a work of great psychological worth and acuity . . . her translation is spot on, using just the right language to carry not only Stendhal's pithiness, but a flavour of the age in which he was writing." -- Guardian

Synopsis
Inspired by his unrequited passion for the Countess Dembowska, Stendhal brings together logical, clear-sighted analysis with all-consuming emotion to remarkable effect in this unique treatise. Stendhal begins his study by classifying the different types of love--romantic, passionate, or courtly--and then muses on the causes of love's birth. He identifies the seven stages of falling in love and proffers wise advice for the ardent lover on a variety of topics, including how to "crystallize" the object of one's desire. Yet beneath these clever philosophical musings, Stendhal makes a desperate attempt to reconcile and dispel his own tortured emotions.
