"The Memoirs of François René Vicomte de Chateaubriand sometime Ambassador to..." by François-René de Chateaubriand is a memoir published posthumously in 1849 and 1850. Written across decades of revisions from 1809 to 1847, this sweeping autobiography blends political history with intimate confession. The French Romantic pioneer chronicles his experiences as soldier, traveler, novelist, and statesman while capturing the epic events of his era. Originally intended for publication fifty years after his death,
financial troubles forced Chateaubriand to release what he called his "mortgaged tomb" to the world. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
