Pastiches et mélanges by Marcel Proust
"Pastiches et mélanges" by Marcel Proust is a collection published in 1919. The work gathers literary pastiches and essays previously published in newspapers, primarily Le Figaro. The first section features nine stylistic imitations of renowned French writers—including Balzac, Flaubert, and the Goncourt brothers—all centered on a sensational 1908 diamond fraud scandal. The second section contains essays on war-damaged churches, cultural preservation, and reflections on art and reading, including Proust's preface to his
translation of Ruskin's work. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
