JACOBIN FICTION CONVENTION MEETING 39: ONE FOR ALL (2007)

1. The Introduction

Hello, Citizens! I’m back at it again, reviewing Frev media! Hope you’re happy to see me again in action!

Anyway, today we have an obscure book. A book I found by accident while looking for any media featuring people of color during Frev — which is an overlooked angle in my opinion.

I found this book on Goodreads and, unfortunately, it can only be purchased through Amazon so far… so I had to make an order and wait for the shipping to arrive. Let’s see if the money and the waiting were worth it though!

This review is dedicated to @saint-jussy , @revolutionarywig , @michel-feuilly , @theorahsart and @lanterne .

2. The Summary

I had to “borrow” the summary from the Amazon page, because it includes some… INTERESTING details:

"In the bloody chaos of the French Revolution an exceptional man comes of age: Alexandre -romantic, intelligent, immensely strong, son of a slave-owning Count and his Haitian first wife.

He accidentally discovers the guilty secret of his new stepmother and her vicious brother. They conspire to destroy him. Cast out by his father, Alexandre is befriended by Chevalier de Saint-George - France's greatest swordsman, Marie-Antoinette’s lover - and falls in love with hot-tempered Marie Labouret.

When Saint-George is wounded helping the Royal Family escape, Alexandre leads the Free American Legion - 1,000 Black lancers - in a brave defence of the Republic against the invading Royalist armies. In ONE FOR ALL the most extraordinary people and amazing events are actual historical fact. Alexandre's son, world-renowned author Alexandre Dumas, found inspiration in the adventures of his father and his father's friend - the Black originals of the much loved characters Porthos and D'Artagnan in THE THREE MUSKETEERS."

I already see a few questionable choices done by the author, but let’s not judge the book too harshly just yet and proceed with the review! I do, personally, love a good swashbuckling story, so it might be a good piece of fiction despite the inaccuracies.

Just put a pin on the “inspired by true events” tidbit included on the cover. You’re going to need to remember this.

3. The Story

I do think that the book has a good prologue, showing Alexandre’s carefree childhood with his parents, where he is a typical child who pulls pranks and doesn’t want to adhere to rules yet. It does a good job of setting up the backstory of the character.

The story proper, I feel, is also doing a good job introducing the characters, especially the stepmother and the step uncle (more on them later). The pacing is also quite good, for the most part, although I really wasn’t that able to turn off my brain and ignore the numerous historical liberties taken by the authors.

Perhaps it would have been better to just make a book about fictional characters instead of the historical ones, but hey. We have what we have.

Also, I didn’t like the fact that the main two villains of the story sometimes lack motivation to do all the shit they pull in the book. As if they are Disney villains whose only trait is “evil”.

For example, the stepmother wants Alexandre cast out so his father doesn’t have him as heir. Pretty standard plotting for an “evil stepmother” type of character, but I occasionally got the feeling that she was only doing it for the evils, even when Alexandre’s father dies and she still attempts to murder her stepson, even though now she has the inheritance she wanted and technically doesn’t need to bother herself with Alexandre’s existence anymore.

But I guess villains just can’t chill out, can they?

Mostly, however, the adventures were quite interesting to follow and I did finish the book in one sitting.

4. The Characters

I do like Alexandre, although at times he seems a bit too idealized in the book. He is kind, brave and chivalrous, just trying to achieve justice and take back the inheritance that is rightfully his.

His stepmother, referred to as “the Countess” in the book, is a standard issue evil stepmother, similar to Madame de Villefort from “The Count of Monte Cristo”. Honestly, the authors do a pretty good job of portraying a vile aristo snake that you just want to see destroyed.

Her brother, de Malpas, is just as evil, and is even incestuous with his sister. As if those two weren’t gross enough. He also murders people left and right for fun, so there’s that.

Chevalier de Saint-George is a character I also liked. He is kind of like a mentor and a brother to Alexandre, and they have a sweet friendship going on!

Marie Labouret is an independent and fierce young woman, but she didn’t seem too modern for the most part.

I couldn’t care less for Alexandre’s father, though. Or rather sperm donor. When the Countess accused her stepson of unspeakable things, this ass immediately through Alexandre out and didn’t even bother to investigate the issue even AFTER the fact. Father of the Year, everybody!!!

5. The Setting

As I mentioned, there are inaccuracies and creative liberties. MANY OF THOSE. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised that the setting wasn’t too bad when it comes to portraying Frev.

There are mentions of mobs killing nobles, as usual, but it’s only mentioned by one character and so we don’t know if it’s true or not.

Also, both Alexandre and Saint-George are still republicans, despite the latter having romantic feelings for the Queen. So the authors at the very least are SOMEWHAT familiar with nuance.

6. The Writing

Sometimes the descriptions are lacking and sometimes the linguistic choices felt a bit too modern to me, but otherwise the writing was quite fine.

7. The Conclusion

All in all, this book is a hit in some ways and a miss in others. I don’t know why the authors twisted history so much when they could have made up their own characters, but the book was still a pretty enjoyable adventure and an interesting experiment.

Read at your own discretion, if you want, but I wouldn’t say I highly recommend it to everyone.

On this note, I declare the Jacobin Fiction Convention closed for now. Stay tuned for future updates!

Love,

Alexandre Dumas (July 24, 1802 – December 5, 1870) known as Alexandre Dumas père, was a French writer. His works have been translated into many languages, and he is one of the most widely-read French authors. Many of his historical novels of high adventure were originally published as serials, including The Count of Monte Cristo, The Three Musketeers, Twenty Years After, and The Vicomte of Bragelonne: Ten Years Later. His novels have been adapted since the early twentieth century for nearly 200 films. His last novel, The Knight of Sainte-Hermine, unfinished at his death, was completed by scholar Claude Schopp and published in 2005. It was published in English in 2008 as The Last Cavalier.

He was born in Picardy, France. He had two older sisters. Their parents were Marie-Louise Élisabeth Labouret and Thomas-Alexandre Dumas.

Prolific in several genres, he began his career by writing plays, which were successfully produced from the first. He wrote numerous magazine articles and travel books; his published works totaled 100,000 pages. He founded the Théâtre Historique in Paris.

The English playwright Watts Phillips, who knew him in his later life, described him as “the most generous, large-hearted being in the world. He was the most delightfully amusing and egotistical creature on the face of the earth. His tongue was like a windmill – once set in motion, you never knew when he would stop, especially if the theme was himself.”

He married actress Ida Ferrier (born Marguerite-Joséphine Ferrand) (1840). They did not have any children together. He is known to have fathered at least four children. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

El 24 de Julio de 1802, en Villers-Cotterêts, norte de Francia, nacía el escritor, novelista y dramaturgo Alexander Dumas. Nacido con el nombre de Dumas Davy de la Pailleterie, era hijo de Marie-Louise Elisabeth Labouret y del general francés Thomas Alexandre Davy de la Pailleterie, mas conocido como el "Conde negro", héroe de la Revolución Francesa. Dumas recibió una escasa educación formal, sin embargo al llegar a la adolescencia comenzó a instruirse de manera autodidacta mientras trabajaba como mensajero, vendedor de tabaco y pasante de un notario. En su primer viaje a París quedó fascinado por el teatro, decidió visitar a viejos amigos de su padre para que lo ayuden en su nuevo proyecto de vida, el de escritor. Gracias a recomendaciones y su perfecta caligrafía el Duque de Orléans lo toma como escribiente, dos años después, en 1825 estrena su primer vaudeville, "La caza y el amor" y en 1826 publica su primera novela, "Blanca de Beaulieu". En sus primeras obras se notaba un cambio revolucionario en la construcción de sus personajes, estos, al contrario de la tendencia de la época, estaban orgullosos de exhibir sus pasiones e impulsos. Pronto sus obras se diversificaron, escribió biografías, tragedias, dramas, melodramas, aventuras y obras de terror, que gustaban a todos los públicos, se convirtió en una celebridad y amasó una fortuna, que oportunamente dilapidó en fastuosas cenas y multitudinarias fiestas. Su obra es un compendio de maravillas pero las más destacadas son "La dama pálida", "Calígula", "Juana de Arco", "El hombre de la máscara de hierro", "La condesa de Salisbury", "El tulipán negro", "Los tres mosqueteros" y "El conde de Montecristo". Su colaborador, Auguste Maquet le inició un juicio por coautoría de algunas de sus obras, Alexander debió desembolsar una fortuna para terminar con el pleito, esto dio inicio a su declive económico, emprendió viajes a Rusia e Italia donde escribió biografías de sus personalidades y novelas históricas locales. Su última obra fue "El gran diccionario de la cocina", el 5 de Diciembre de 1870 estando en su residencia de Puys, lo encuentra la muerte el mismo día en que las tropas Prusianas entraban en su pueblo.

You probably remeber this scene from Django Unchained (2012) by Tarantino.

There’s a moment in Django when Dr. Schultz and Calvin Candie discuss Alexandre Dumas, the author of The Three Musketeers. Dr. Schultz speculates that Dumas would not have approved of Candie’s decision to feed one of his slaves to a pack of dogs while he was still alive. Candie inquires, “soft-hearted Frenchman?” to which Schultz responds, “Alexandre Dumas is black.” At this point, we the audience are supposed to fall out of our chairs, because it’s just so badass. If you take a step back from this, you realize it only happens so the audience can feel comfortable in their belief that slave-owners were uneducated idiots, but, yes, Alexandre Dumas was of African descent. He was actually one-quarter black.

His paternal grandfather was Marquis Alexandre-Antoine Davy de la Pailleterie, a French nobleman who fell in love with a slave named Marie-Cesette ( an Afro-Carribean creole of mixed African and French ancestry). He took her as a concubine and they had a mixed race son: Thomas-Alexandre Dumas

This is him (and he was pretty badass!!!)

He was the first person of color in the French military to become brigadier general, divisional general and general-in-chief of a French army. Thomas-Alexandre’s strength was a legend and Napoleon admired his bravery and appreciated his military expertise.

He married Marie-Louise Elizabeth Labouret (a white woman) and they had two daughters and a son, the famous Alexandre Dumas.

But: The issue of racism was never far from Dumas father and son.

Being of mixed race affected Thomas all his life: He was born into slavery because of his mother's status. In order to give him access to education, his father took the boy with him to France where Slavery had been illegal since 1315.

When he proposed to join the army, his father only agreed on condition that he enlisted under his mother's name , in order to preserve the family's reputation.

When he was a young man,while he was accompanying an elegant (white) lady to the theater , an officer decided that it would be good fun to insult the black aristocrat. First, he pretended to mistake the young man of colour for the lady's lackey. Then, after an affray, he forced Thomas to kneel in front of him and ask for pardon.

And those racial abuses happened time and time again.

As for Alexandre, his fellow novelist Balzac referred to him as ‘that negro” and although his books were revered by his contemporaries, he was often mocked for his colour.

His own mother has issues with his mixed origins : before giving birth to Alexandre,she had seen a puppet show with a black devil called Berlick, and she had been terrified at the prospect of” giving birth to a Berlick”.

Dumas’ quick wit served him well when he was attacked: he famously remarked to a white man who insulted him about his mixed-race background with the following words: “My father was a mulatto, my grandfather was a Negro, and my great-grandfather a monkey. You see, Sir, my family starts where yours ends.”

Dumas said nothing of the racial abuse directed at his father. He adored him though: he has fictionalised many of his father's real-life exploits in The Three Musketeers .

At the start of the novel, d'Artagnan's father tells his son, "never submit quietly to the slightest indignity", for "it is by his courage alone that a gentleman makes his way nowadays…” I’d like to think that it is his way to pay hommage to his father who remained strong and dignified in the face of oppression.

Thomas-Alexandre Dumas (1762-1806).

French general.

.

He was a French general in Revolutionary France. With Toussaint Louverture and later Abram Petrovich Gannibal in Imperial Russia, Thomas-Alexandre Dumas stands as one of the highest-ranking men of African descent ever to lead a European army. He was the first person of color in the French military to become brigadier general, the first to become divisional general, and the first to become general-in-chief of a French army.

.

Dumas’s mother, Marie-Cessette Dumas, was a black slave. His father, Alexandre-Antoine Davy, was a white Frenchman. Thomas-Alexandre was raised on his father’s tobacco and coffee plantation in southwestern Saint-Domingue (now Haiti), a French colony on the island of Hispaniola. In 1776, at age 14, he traveled to France to live with his father, who had left Saint-Domingue the year before. They settled at Saint-Germain-en-Laye, where his father assumed the family title of marquis de la Pailleterie. Dumas’s upbringing was typical of a son of an aristocrat, and in 1786, at age 24, he joined the French army as a private. However, his father refused to allow him to use his name in the lowest rank of the army. Thus, he dropped Thomas from his given name and took his mother’s surname, entering Louis XVI’s service as Alexandre Dumas.

.

Dumas was a corporal in 1792 when France went to war with Austria and Prussia. He had gained a reputation in the army for his strength, swordsmanship, and a volatile temper. He enthusiastically supported the First Republic established during the Revolution. When the Black Legion was formed in 1792 by Joseph Boulogne, chevalier de Saint-Georges, Dumas was promoted to lieutenant colonel and became second in command of the legion. Saint George—who had been born on Guadeloupe and, like Dumas, was of mixed ethnicity—had little interest in the army and left Dumas to organize, train, and command the legion. The Black Legion was fighting with the Army of the North when Dumas was promoted to general of brigade in 1793. He had risen from corporal to general unusually quickly.

.

In 1793 Dumas was given command of the Army of the Alps, and in 1794 he captured two important mountain passes: the Little Saint Bernard Pass and the Col du Mont Cenis. Denounced that year by the local Jacobin Club, he was recalled to Paris to defend himself (reasons unspecified but probably to face charges of treason), but the coup d’état of 9 Thermidor (July 27) put an end to the Reign of Terror and the charges brought against him. He then briefly served with the Army of the West.

.

In 1796, Dumas was ordered back to the Army of the Alps, not as its commander but as second in command under Gen. François-Christophe Kellermann. Unhappy, Dumas requested a transfer. In October 1796, he was sent to Italy to serve under Gen. Napoleon Bonaparte; he fought under Bonaparte until the Treaty of Campo Formio, the peace settlement signed in October 1797 that followed France’s victory over Austria.

.

When Bonaparte led an expedition to Egypt in 1798, Dumas was given command of the cavalry. But he pleaded poor health and was permitted to leave Egypt in February 1799. When his ship proved to be unseaworthy and put into the Italian city of Taranto, Dumas became a prisoner of war. He was freed in April 1801. Dumas was malnourished and kept incommunicado for two years. By the time of his release, he was partially paralyzed, almost blind in one eye, had been deaf in one ear but recovered; his physique was broken.

.

He was married to Marie-Louise Élisabeth Labouret and had three children with her.

.

He died from stomach cancer.

Moving on to Best Known Author Alexandre Dumas, and thus some more fun times: 

Lafarge (Dumas’ employer) had told (16 year old Alexandre Dumas)  that if a man wants to charm the opposite sex, he must be elegant. The Whitsuntide He rummaged through the wardrobe of his now deceased Labouret grandfather. There, carefully preserved in camphor and sweet-smelling herbs, he found garments dating from the days of the ancien régime: brocaded satin coats; red, gold-embroidered waistcoats; nankeen trousers.  He jumped for joy, chose a bottle-green dresscoat, and thought himself irresistible.��

-The Titans, Andre Maurois...this was in 1818 he’s wearing ancien regime court clothes ...in 1818  he is not being anachronistic on purpose he’s just very 16  oh no

Jean Giono sur ses terres

Un roi sans divertissement et autres romans

de Jean Giono

Préface de Denis Labouret, éditions et notes de Pierre Citron, Henri Godard, Janine et Lucien Miallet, Luce Ricatte et Robert Ricatte

La Pléiade, 1 360 p., 60 € jusqu’au 31 août (66 € ensuite)

Cahier de l’Herne Giono

dirigé par Agnès Castiglione et Mireille Sacotte

288 p., 33 €

Publié de son vivant en février 1970 – il mourut à 75 ans en octobre de la même année -, L’Iris de Suse, dernier roman de Jean Giono, parut dans une indifférence quasi générale. Longtemps, à l’exception de ses lecteurs fidèles et malgré les six volumes de La Pléiade, son œuvre ne fut pas mise à la place qu’elle mérite. Réunissant certaines de ses fictions, de Colline à L’Iris de Suse, ce nouveau tome de La Pléiade ouvre l’accès au cœur de l’œuvre. Comme Henri Bosco ou André Dhôtel, encore méconnus, Giono a délimité un domaine qui a ses propres lois.

Sa vie, ses lectures, son écriture se mêlent en un même tissu et il raconte dans Jean le Bleu (1932) comment la littérature fit échapper le héros, son double, à ce qui est pour ses personnages le mal suprême : l’ennui. Fils d’un cordonnier et d’une repasseuse, Giono fut initié à la littérature au collège et, surtout, grâce aux livres de ses parents. Bien des familles paysannes pauvres lisaient alors les classiques, les conservaient d’une génération à l’autre et, dans des collections à bon marché, découvraient des œuvres plus récentes.

Giono arpenta une contrée imaginaire, sauvage, battue des vents, écrasée par un soleil noir et des orages subits, où la beauté est tragique

Très tôt, son monde intérieur fut habité par de grandes présences : Homère, les tragiques grecs, la Bible, Shakespeare, ­Pascal, L’Arioste, très tôt aussi il se lança dans l’aventure de l’écriture et délimita une topologie romanesque autour de Manosque, la montagne de Lure, la Durance, la Haute-Provence, le sud des Alpes. Utilisant les noms de villages et de lieux-dits, s’amusant à les déplacer, à en inventer, il arpenta une contrée imaginaire, sauvage, battue des vents, écrasée par un soleil noir et des orages subits, où la beauté est tragique : « L’écrivain qui a le mieux décrit cette Provence, c’est Shakespeare », déclarait-il en 1954.

Ce volume de La Pléiade illustre bien comment ce territoire entre réel et invention s’est transformé, de Colline (1929) où la nature, imprévisible, fascinante, inquiétante est la principale force, à L’Iris de Suse où la violence dans les mêmes décors s’efface devant celle des personnages. Entre les deux romans, Giono a été emprisonné deux fois, en 1939 pour « pacifisme » et en 1944, accusé à tort de collaboration. Il renonce alors aux utopies politiques, se désintéresse des institutions humaines. Son espace littéraire est désormais peuplé de hautes figures, des « âmes fortes », monstrueuses parfois, vivant, jusqu’au suicide ou au crime, des passions secrètes et dangereuses.

→ CRITIQUE. Au Mucem, Jean Giono au-delà des clichés

L’Italie n’est jamais loin, ni le Stendhal des Chroniques italiennes. Ses territoires englobent à présent les petites villes, deviennent des labyrinthes : maisons abandonnées, couvents en ruine, terrasses dominant de vastes paysages, châteaux délabrés, chemins oubliés par lesquels arrivent des voyageurs venus d’on ne sait où, comme Monsieur Joseph dans Le Moulin de Pologne. Et le labyrinthe est surtout intérieur, prisons de l’âme rappelant celles de Piranèse. Les êtres ordinaires n’intéressent pas Giono, ils forment le fond du tableau et, à la façon du chœur dans la tragédie grecque, commentent les événements que bien souvent ils ne comprennent pas. Ce qui est au cœur du roman, c’est le combat contre le destin. « Ce sont, a-t-il dit, les êtres exceptionnels et torturés qui disent leurs quatre vérités aux vulgaires et aux médiocres. Ces êtres marqués de Dieu pour un sort exceptionnel contre le vulgaire. »

Les êtres ordinaires n’intéressent pas Giono

Le destin a parfois la forme de l’ennui, auquel seul le divertissement, qui détourne du sentiment de la mort, fait échapper. Fragmentaire dans le titre – Un roi sans divertissement –, complétée aux dernières lignes – « est un homme plein de misère » -, la citation de Pascal enveloppe l’histoire de Langlois, capitaine de gendarmerie chargé de résoudre l’énigme de meurtres en série commis durant six hivers consécutifs entre 1843 et 1848 dans un village du Vercors, où rien ne se passe et que la neige recouvre plusieurs mois par an. La neige, le sang : deux motifs récurrents, liés tout au long de la narration, descente dans les abîmes d’une âme, celle de Langlois qui est à lui-même sa propre énigme et qui, découvrant en lui la fascination du crime, choisit hardiment la mort.

Cette bataille est au centre de presque toutes les autres fictions. Dans Le Moulin de Pologne, comme dans les tragédies grecques, la fatalité s’est abattue depuis plusieurs générations sur une famille – les Coste – et la jalousie des dieux semble s’acharner sur les natures d’exception telles que Julie, figure centrale, blessée elle aussi, animal sacrifié : une frayeur soudaine a paralysé la moitié de son visage. Sa façon de chanter avec ferveur à la messe de Pâques a fait scandale : « Nous sommes des chrétiens, bien sûr, mais il ne faut pas nous en demander trop… En nous tout est petit », dit le narrateur, incapable plus tard, lorsque Julie danse et chante seule dans un bal où beaucoup se moquent d’elle, de deviner qu’un drame se joue sur un fond métaphysique invisible.

Pour ce roman, Giono avait hésité entre plusieurs titres comme La rue est à Dieu, suivi de l’épigraphe : Maintenant, Seigneur, laisse aller ton esclave en paix. Fatalité aveugle ? La chute de Léonce, dernier des Coste, est-elle l’effet du Démon ? Ou une punition divine ? Dans Faust en village (1949) le Diable apparaît sous l’apparence d’un auto-stoppeur. Les feuillets et brouillons du romancier témoignent de ses interrogations religieuses et de sa curiosité pour les forces maléfiques, mais il n’a pas donné de réponse.

———————

« La petite lorgnette du régionalisme »

Extrait de la préface de Denis Labouret à l’édition de La Pléiade

« Le romancier fait ainsi éclater toutes les frontières d’une région existante pour créer un «Sud imaginaire» qui n’a de contour sur aucune carte. (…) Ces «Hautes-Collines» (ainsi nommées dans Deux cavaliers de l’orage), ce «Haut Pays» d’Ennemonde, ces plateaux battus par les vents de Regain et de L’Homme qui plantait des arbres, c’est une terre imaginaire qui doit autant à la lecture des auteurs grecs et latins, dévorés et même broutés par Giono dans sa jeunesse, qu’à celle de Whitman ou plus tard de Faulkner – un pays mythique, poétique, souvent tragique. Si Provence il y a, Giono prend donc bien soin d’en refuser les lieux communs, quitte à surprendre, délibérément : «L’écrivain qui a le mieux décrit cette Provence, c’est Shakespeare.» »

#Balbula, La Cité des Anges: Suite de la résistance du Peuple Lobi: Dans les premiers temps, certains commandants de cercles (notamment à Diébougou) assurent directement l’administration de leur circonscription depuis leur résidence: c’est un échec. Dans le Lobi, on essaie d’implanter artificiellement des chefs, choisis parmi des personnes étrangères au pays: les expériences menées dans les années 1898-1908 ne sont guère concluantes ; ces nominations accentuent l’incompréhension entre les autorités coloniales et les populations indigènes. Les autorités coloniales décident alors de confier les fonctions de chef à des personnalités considérées comme influentes au sein de leur village : de 1908 à 1912, les chefs de terre qui jouissent d’une autorité religieuse sont désignés comme chefs administratifs ; à partir de 1912, à l’initiative d’Henri Labouret, commandant de la circonscription de Diébougou, des chefs, choisis parmi les «amis des Blancs», sont imposés à tous les villages. Ne pouvant s’appuyer sur la coutume et les traditions, cette chefferie administrative, si elle devient avec le temps un rouage important de l’administration coloniale, ne parvient jamais à s’imposer complètement.....

Sou apaixonada pela escrita de Alexandre Dumas tanto o pai quanto o filho... Bem que as editoras poderiam publicar outros títulos dos autores... um livro que faz algum tempo não tem edição atualizada, é A Filha do Regente, minha versão é de 1938, e outros livros dos autores, pois só reeditam os mesmos títulos. E aí @novafronteira ou @editorazahar quem sabe??? Reposted from @novafronteira Filho do famoso general das forças napoleônicas Thomas-Alexandre Dumas – conhecido como Diabo Negro – e de Marie-Louise Élisabeth Labouret, Alexandre Dumas nasceu em 24 de julho de 1802. ⠀ Seu pai foi o único homem negro a alcançar a alta hierarquia em um exército na Europa do século XVIII, e as aventuras por ele vividas inspiraram notoriamente o filho. Diferente de muitos autores clássicos, Alexandre Dumas alcançou o sucesso em vida. Muito festeiro e mulherengo, no ápice de sua fama, com os romances "O Conde de Monte-Cristo" e "Os Três Mosqueteiros" publicados em formato de folhetim nos jornais, construiu um palacete para se esconder da fama e receber amigos, dando grandes festas e jantares. Apesar de ter sido um sucesso comercial, de crítica e de público por seu inegável talento, a vida de Alexandre Dumas foi marcada por ser um homem negro numa França imperialista que amargava a independência da colônia de Saint-Domingue, atual Haiti. Dumas morreu em dezembro de 1870, aos 68 anos, de derrame cerebral, durante o cerco a Paris na guerra Franco-Prussiana. Em 2002, a França reconheceu o racismo que Dumas sofreu em vida, e seus restos mortais foram transferidos para o Panteão de Paris, onde grandes figuras da história francesa estão enterrados ou têm monumentos. ⠀ A Nova Fronteira publicou o box Alexandre Dumas de clássicos Light e "Os tres mosqueteiros" na Biblioteca Áurea. ⠀ #alexandredumas #novafronteira - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/CDB44TpjUg6/?igshid=1xglcidq3p3ga
