Marie-Henri Bayle, known to the world as Stendhal, is one of the most famous French writers and the founder of the psychological novel. This edition includes two major works of Stendhal, which provided him an honorable place in the pantheon of classics of European literature. The novel "Red and Black" tells the story of an ambitious and talented young man from the lower classes. Among the many assumptions about the meaning of the name there is a version, according to which Stendhal disguised in it two feelings raging in the soul of the protagonist, Julien Sorel. On the one hand, a mental impulse and unaccountable attraction to love, on the other - ambition, coupled with a thirst for fame. The interpenetration and struggle of these feelings constitute the inner intrigue of the most popular work of Stendhal. The action of the novel "Parma Cloister" takes place in Italy, a country of strong passions and great culture. The tense plot, deep psychological feelings of the characters, who for the sake of love go to betrayal and sacrifice the most precious things, as well as an impressive depiction of historical events of that era make the novel an undoubted masterpiece of world literature.
