Stendhal — real name Henri Beyle — is one of the most famous French writers of the 19th century. His works include "The Charterhouse of Parma," "Lucien Leuwen," "Vanina Vanini," and his masterpiece is considered to be the novel "The Red and the Black." The plot of the book was based on a typical case from criminal chronicle, which under Stendhal's skillful pen transformed into a model of psychological realism. Julien Sorel — an ambitious and capable young man — experienced both light infatuation and turbulent passion, but ultimately paid dearly for his transgressions.
