Featured Article: Gerard de Nerval
Gérard de Nerval (May 22, 1808 – January 26, 1855) was the pen name of the French writer, poet, and translator Gérard Labrunie, a major figure of French romanticism, best known for the collection Les Filles du feu (The Daughters of Fire), which included the novella Sylvie and the poem "El Desdichado." Through his translations, Nerval played a major role in introducing French readers to the works of German Romantic authors, including Klopstock, Schiller, Bürger and Goethe. His later work merged poetry and journalism in a fictional context, influencing Marcel Proust. His last novella, Aurélia, influenced André Breton and Surrealism.
