Description
Summary:In 1807 Boufflers published the tale L’Heureux accident as a serial in the magazine Mercure de France, and in 1810 Ah! si… was published in a collection consisting of three tales by the same author: Le Derviche, conte oriental, suivi de Tamara, ou Le lac des pénitents, nouvelle indienne, et de Ah! si..., nouvelle allemande. These moral tales, which were written during the first decade of the 19th century, show Boufflers’ conservative principles in his last years. They illustrate his intimate wish to retire from a disappointing society and to take shelter in the bosom of the family as a place where the individual may enjoy shared happiness, love and friendship in peace.
