Talented and resolutely independent, Marie d’Agoult (1805–76) was one of the most remarkable women of her time. Abandoning her privileged position in society, she eloped with her great love, the pianist and composer Franz Liszt, and later won fame as a writer under the penname Daniel Stern. She published fiction, articles on literature, music, art, and politics, and a history of the revolution of 1848, and she was an eloquent advocate for democracy, the eradication of poverty, and the emancipation of women. Drawing on her memoirs, letters, and other unpublished writings, Richard Bolster’s engrossing biography sets Marie d’Agoult’s eventful life against a backdrop of dramatic political change in France. Courted by many important figures of her day, she married a nobleman and became a member of the court of Charles X. Her passion for music eventually brought her into contact with Liszt, with whom she moved to Italy and had three children. After their idealistic romance degenerated into disenchantment, d’Agoult returned to Paris, began her writing career, and established a salon for artists, reformers, and freethinkers. Bolster explains how George Sand became d’Agoult’s friend and then betrayed her by giving Balzac information about her affair with Liszt, which he used in his novel Béatrix. He concludes with a moving account of d’Agoult’s last years.

"Despite strains in her personal life (she never gained legal custody of her children and was disinherited by her own family), she made her Paris salon a multilingual center of European artists, writers, and revolutionaries. Through them she partook in and wrote about the great events of her lifetime, including her authoritative account of France's 1848 revolution. History has not treated her well despite her stature in her own times because much of what we know of her has been written by partisans for Liszt or Sand. In this new biography, historian Phyllis Stock-Morton takes Marie d'Agoult out of the shadows of Liszt and Sand and allows her to be recognized in her own right."--BOOK JACKET.

Winner of the 2004 Soeurette Diehl Fraser Award for Best Translation presented by the Texas Institute of Letters First published in 1846 under the pen name Daniel Stern, Nelida tells the story of a beautiful French heiress who surrenders everything—marriage, reputation, and an aristocratic way of life—for the love of a talented young middle class painter. Based on the author's own ten-year relationship with the pianist and composer Franz Liszt, the novel quickly became the scandalous bestseller of its day. Its author, Marie d'Agoult, has emerged as one of the most remarkable women of her time. An aristocratic Parisian woman who left her husband and child to become the companion of Liszt, d'Agoult became an accomplished woman of letters whose works included a major history of the 1848 revolution in Paris. In Nelida, her only major novel, she brings to life the deeply intimate parts of her own story and the era in which it took place. Written with a keen sensitivity to social mores and psychological nuances, the novel reveals the primal cry of a woman determined to control her own destiny without betraying her womanhood. Appearing here for the first time in English, Lynn Hoggard's translation of Nelida is ripe for rereading by today's readers.

La biographie de référence d'une femme libre, muse et compagne de Franz Liszt, et écrivain sous le nom de Daniel Stern. En 1835, Marie de Flavigny, comtesse d'Agoult, abandonne son mari, sa fille et sa haute position sociale pour vivre au grand jour une liaison passionnée avec le pianiste et futur compositeur Franz Liszt. L'une de leurs filles, Cosima, deviendra l'épouse de Richard Wagner. Dans son célèbre salon parisien défilent pendant quarante ans les noms les plus prestigieux des arts, de la littérature, de la musique et de la politique. De nombreuses oeuvres lui sont dédiées et elle pose pour peintres et sculpteurs. Balzac s'inspire d'elle pour sa Béatrix. Cette aristocrate d'une grande beauté et d'une intelligence exceptionnelle a combattu toute sa vie en faveur des idées républicaines. Ainsi paraissent de nombreux articles et une dizaine d'ouvrages qu'elle publie sous le nom de Daniel Stern. Parmi ceux-ci, une histoire de la révolution de 1848 et de précieux mémoires toujours consultés par les historiens. Charles Dupêchez retrace admirablement ce destin ardent, placé sous le signe de l'amour et de la liberté.
