Stendhal's novel "The Red and the Black" is a generally recognized literary masterpiece of the nineteenth century. It is known that A. Pushkin, having read the first volume of the literary novelty in French in 1831, was delighted and begged Princess Khitrovo to urgently send him the second. The plot of an ambitious and talented young man, who came from the lower classes, was read by A.I. Turgenev, P.A. Vyazemsky, L.N. Tolstoy. Having come to the conclusion that "in our age money is everything", young Julien Sorel begins a kind of social ascent and, in fact, achieves his goals with relative ease. Among the many assumptions about the meaning of the novel "The Red and the Black", one can find a version according to which Stendhal disguised two feelings raging in the soul of an ambitious young man under secret flowers: passion as a spiritual impulse, as an unconscious attraction and ambition, coupled with a thirst for glory, recognition at any cost. The interpenetration and struggle of these feelings constitute the internal intrigue of Stendhal's novel. But is this enough to be happy?
