Correspondance
Madame, je prends la liberté de vous envoyer quelques vers que je viens d'écrire en relisant un chapitre d'Indiana, celui où Noun reçoit Raimond dans la chambre de sa maîtresse. Leur peu de valeur m'aurait fait hésiter à les mettre sous vos yeux, s'ils n'étaient pour moi une occasion de vous exprimer le sentiment d'admiration sincère et profonde qui les a inspirés. Agréez, madame, l'assurance de mon respect. ALF. DE MUSSET. Fruit d'une sélection réalisée au sein des fonds de la Bibliothèque nationale de France, Collection XIX a pour ambition de faire découvrir des textes classiques et moins classiques dans les meilleures éditions du XIXe siècle.

George Sand
Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin de Francueil (French: [amɑ̃tin lysil oʁɔʁ dypɛ̃]; 1 July 1804 – 8 June 1876), best known by her pen name George Sand (French: [ʒɔʁʒ(ə) sɑ̃d]), was a French novelist, memoirist and journalist. Being more renowned than either Victor Hugo or Honoré de Balzac in Britain in the 1830s and 1840s, Sand is recognised as one of the most notable writers of the European Romantic era. She has more than 50 volumes of various works to her credit, including tales, plays and political texts, alongside her 70 novels.
Like her step great-grandmother, Louise Dupin, whom she admired, George Sand advocated for women's rights and passion, criticized the institution of marriage, and fought against the prejudices of a conservative society. She was considered scandalous because of her turbulent love life, her adoption of masculine clothing, and her masculine pseudonym.
