"Le Roman Historique à l'Époque Romantique: Essai sur l'Influence de Walter Scott" by Louis Maigron is a literary study published in 1898. This pioneering French examination explores how Walter Scott's historical novels revolutionized French Romantic literature. Maigron traces the evolution of the historical novel through three stages before analyzing Scott's transformative techniques: making history central to plot, creating representative character types rather than individuals, and employing vivid local color. The work demonstrates
how Scott's innovations breathed life into modern French fiction, inspiring disciples like Balzac to reshape the novel itself. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
