Excerpt from The Works of Théophile Gautier, Vol. 2 Alas! It did not last long, for me at least; you, on the other hand, managed to retain the innocence of the child even while acquiring the knowledge of man. The germ of corruption that was in me grew fast, and gan grene pitilessly devoured all that I had of pure and holy. My friendship for you is the one good thing that has remained to me.

Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 2 But if Gautier could not and did not seek to wholly reverse the judgments of Boileau, he succeeded in making the readers of his own and of succeeding generations appreciate in these minor poets many a forgotten beauty, and in giving such vivid reproduc tions of the men and their times that every one, Cyrano de Bergerac, saint-amant, Scarron, and the others actually live in his pages. He has written criticisms keen, bright, interesting; full of brilliant passages, of evocations of bygone times, of restoration of forgotten modes of thought; he has made intel ligible the fame which most of these men enjoyed in their day, -and all this without once wearying the reader, but, on the contrary, maintaining his interest and exciting his curiosity.

Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 5: The Louvre, And, Constantinople The Museum of the Louvre, one of the very richest in Europe, was founded by the Convention, but fine collections of paintings, drawings, and other works of art existed in France long before that time. At that marvellous epoch called the Renaissance, Francis I, to whom the modern Louvre owes its existence, began to collect paintings and strove to found a school of artists inspired by Italian ideals. Andrea del Sarto was intrusted by him with large sums for the purchase of masterpieces; del Sarto squandered the money, but Primaticcio, the next to be selected, fulfilled his com mission more honourably. Leonardo da Vinci, Peru gino, Raphael, Titian are now represented by works acquired by the knightly King. Catherine de' Medici and Cardinal Mazarin were both great collectors every one knows the clever way in which the latter managed to procure the Barberini Correggio. Louis XIV, whose love of pomp somewhat narrowed his views on art, added many valuable works. It was his secretary, Colbert, who negotiated the purchase of the famous Jabach collection. Versailles, Fontainebleau, the Tuileries, the Luxembourg, were full of rare and precious works of art. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 9 It is perhaps too much to say, as does Spoelberch de Lovenjoul, in his admirable "History of the Works of Theophile Gautier," that this novel engrossed the author during his whole life, but it certainly did spread itself over a considerable number of his years of literary labour. He conceived the notion of writing it immediately after "Mademoiselle de Maupin" appeared in print, and, in the opinion of the above quoted critic, the hero is intended as a pendant to the heroine of that most famous and most brilliant story. Here again it is difficult to agree with the learned bibliophile, for there is no very apparent resemblance between the amazingly bold and daringly experimentative maiden and the dullish owner of and resident in Poverty Hall.

Excerpt from The Complete Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 6 Spirite" is a standing proof of Gautier's versatility, for the subject of the tale is not one that would usually appeal to his intense love of plastic beauty. However, the possibilities of spiritual beauty that must necessarily be expressed in terms of earthly loveliness, and the attraction he could not readily resist, combined to induce him to try his hand at writing at a tender, delicate, ideal, and dreamy poem in prose. He succeeded, as the perusal of the story conclusively proves, in creating a very lovely and winsome character, that of Lavinia d'Audefini, the maiden whose confession of love had so often been on her lips in this world, and at last made itself heard from beyond the tomb. Gautier has admirably rendered the suavity, the chastity of the young girl's unrequited affection. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 7: Travels in Italy Of course it would have been interesting to possess all Gautier had to say about the Eternal City and the City of Flowers, but it may be affirmed that it would not have been as characteristic, as deeply marked with intense feeling, with warm, passionate love of the subject. To him Italy meant Venice, and Venice Italy. The other places were no doubt interesting and attrac tive, and the painter-half of him could delight in the Tribuna and the Loggia, but the whole of him was wrapped up in San Marco and the Campanile, in San Giorgio Maggiore and the Dogana, in the Lido and the Grand Canal. He had given his readers the very cream of Italy at the outset; neither he nor they could care for aught else after that.

Excerpt from The Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 6: Portraits of the Day Of course, Balzac was largely a Romanticist, while Gautier tended, not to realism exactly, but to a soberer mode of thought and to a firmer, cleaner, more accurate form of expression than the school of which he had been so illustrious a member, and which was being dethroned in its turn by the followers of Stendhal, Merimee, and Balzac. Gautier appreciated the admi rable work of the latter at a time when praise was but grudgingly conceded to one of the greatest masters of French letters. The realism of Balzac did not shock him; he saw in the stupendous Comedie humaine a form of that art which he himself loved so intensely and so faithfully.

Excerpt from The Works of Theophile Gautier, Vol. 24: Enamels and Cameos and Other Poems The divine gift of verse having been denied to the translator and editor of this English edition of Theophile Gautier's works, he has secured the collaboration, for this part of his task, of Mrs. Agnes Lee, who has undertaken and carried it out with care and skill. To translate any author satisfactorily, that is, in such a manner that his literary quality shall become apparent to the reader, is, in all conscience, a sufficiently difficult matter when prose alone is in question. But when to the obstacles to be overcome are added the peculiarly characteristic features of verse, the difficulty becomes wellnigh insurmountable.
