Extrait
| Elle resta donc immobile et muette à la regarder ; mais, comme si sa présence se fût révélée à Pauline par un mouvement instinctif du coeur, celle-ci se tourna tout à coup vers elle et la regarda fixement sans dire un mot et sans changer de visage.
-- Pauline ! ne me reconnais-tu pas ? s'écria l'étrangère ; as-tu oublié la figure de Laurence ?
Alors Pauline jeta un cri, se leva, et retomba sans force sur un siége. Laurence était déjà dans ses bras, et toutes deux pleuraient...|

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.
