Le charme de la Provence, le soleil de la Provence, la gaieté de la Provence, toutes ces qualités se retrouvent dans ce plaisant chef d'oeuvre avec la douceur de vivre qui pouvait exister au siècle passé dans une petite ville du Midi. Douceur de vivre que savoure Tartarin mais qui pèse un peu à ce bourgeois épris d'héroïsme. De là, son goût de la vantardise qui finira par le lancer - pas trop rassuré - dans sa rocambolesque épopée africaine. Il y déploiera l'énergie et la persévérance qui feront de lui un héros, un héros attendrissant et un peu comique, mais un héros tout de même. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
CROWNED BY THE FRENCH ACADEMYAlphonse Daudet was a French novelist and playwright. His father was a silk manufacturer who suffered reverses and lost his property. Daudet took a post as a schoolteacher at Ales, Gard, but found it intolerable, and moved to Paris to live with his brother, Ernest, who was working as a journalist. Daudet wrote poetry and several plays, and secured employment as a secretary to Morny, a Minister of Napoleon III.Tatarin of Tarascon is a tale of the adventures of Tartarin, a local hero of Tarascon, a small town in southern France.The book spawned two sequels: Tartarin sur les Alpes and Port-Tarascon, as well as three film adaptations. Unpopular in the area of Tarascon when first issued, the Tatarin adventures made Tarascon famous, and there is now a museum in Tarascon devoted to Tatarin. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

"Quixote-Tartarin firing up on the stories of Gustave Aimard and shouting "Up and at 'em!" and Sancho-Tartarin thinking only of the rheumatics ahead and murmuring "I mean to stay at home."
But after an encounter with a lion in a local menagerie, the rumour goes about that Tartarin is off to hunt lions in Algeria, and reluctantly he has to make the journey...
His adventures in Africa are highly entertaining and comical featuring a Moorish lady-of-the-night, a camel, a not-to-be-trusted Montenegrin prince ... and even a lion.
Great translation renders the original in convincing Victorian English. ( )
