Marcel (Valentin-Louis-George-Eugene) Proust (1871-1922) French novelist, best known for Á LA RECHERCHE DU TEMPS PERDU (Remembrance of Things Past), his autobiographical novel told mostly in a stream-of-consciousness style. The work collected pieces from Proust's childhood, observations of aristocratic life-style, gossip, recollections of the closed world, where the author never found his place. The key scene is when a madeleine cake (a small, rich cookie-like pastry) enables the narrator to experience the past completely as a simultaneous part of his present existence: "And suddenly the memory revealed itself: The taste was that of the little piece of madeleine which on Sunday mornings at Combray (because on those mornings I did not go out before mass), when I went to say good morning to her in her bedroom, my aunt Léonie used to give me, dipping it first in her own cup of tea or tisane." Jean Santeuil and CONTRE-SAINTE BEUVE, an attack on the biographical criticism of Sainte-Beuve, were discovered in the 1950s.

Marcel Proust, 1871-1922
Marcel Proust was born in 1871 in Paris. His childhood coincided with France's post-Commune era; Paris was being rebuilt into a modern city with wide boulevards and modern buildings, automobiles were being introduced, the Eiffel Tower was completed and the Statue of Liberty was soon to be sent to America. "It was an era of ferment, social change, and new ideas." Marcel's father was a medical doctor and his mother was an affluent Jewish stockbrocker. Their wealth provided him with a privileged upbringing; he enjoyed country gardens, the friendship of relatives and studying at private schools. When he was 18 he joined the infantry for one year. Oddly enough, for a young man who was sickly, homosexual, and introspective, he later reflected fondly upon the experience. The military restrictions, he explained, contributed to a happy time, "in which pleasure is the more constantly with us because we have no time to run about looking for it and so miss it altogether." As a Jew, a homosexual, and an asthmatic semi-invalid, Proust learned early in life that he was an outsider and adopted a voyeur approach to the social customs he saw around him. Thus he was able to view the aristocratic enclaves from a fresh perspective and with a shrewd insight into individuals he would later fictionalize in revealing detail.

BIOGRAPHY
LA BOHEME MODERNISM
Marcel Proust was born on July 10th, 1871 in Auteuil, France, a suburb of Paris. His father, a doctor well known for his work in epidermiology, was married to a stockbroker's daughter of Jewish descent. Marcel was sick from the time he was born, and from the age of nine began suffering from severe asthma, which harmed his chances for a conventional professional career.
In the 1890's he contributed sketches to magazines such as "Le Figaro" and "Le Banquet." He published "Pleasures and Days," a collection of short stories, poetry, and essays, in 1896. His very active social life led to acquaintances with members of the wealthy and aristocratic classes. In 1894, he began an affair with a pianist, Reynaldo Hahn, which prompted him to realize his homosexual tendencies, a realization that came with anguish.
In 1898, Emile Zola published a letter defending Colonel Dreyfus, who was facing charges of treason. Proust became known as "the first Dreyfusard," an identification he welcomed. By the time Dreyfus was cleared of the charges, Proust's social life was already shattered due to anti-Semitism and political hatred.

Marcel Proust
Home Authors Marcel Proust
Marcel Proust was born in the Parisian suburb of Auteuil on July 10, 1871. His father, Adrien Proust, was a doctor celebrated for his work in epidemiology; his mother, Jeanne Weil, was a stockbroker's daughter of Jewish descent. He lived as a child in the family home on Boulevard Malesherbes in Paris, but spent vacations with his aunt and uncle in the town of Illiers near Chartres, where the Prousts had lived for generations and which became the model for the Combray of his great novel. (In recent years it was officially renamed Illiers-Combray.) Sickly from birth, Marcel was subject from the age of nine to violent attacks of asthma, and although he did a year of military service as a young man and studied law and political science, his invalidism disqualified him from an active professional life.

CHAPTER ONE Marcel Proust
By EDMUND WHITE
Viking Read the Review In England not long ago a survey of writers and critics revealed that the twentieth-century novelist they most admiredand who they thought would have the most enduring influence on the next centurywas Marcel Proust. Certainly the madeleine moistened by herbal tea has become the most famous symbol in French literature; everyone refers to sudden gusts of memory as "Proustian experiences." Snobs like to point out that if the Prousts had been better-mannered and not given to dunking, world literature would have been the poorer for it. Even those who haven't read Proust speak of him freely and often. Studying him, of course, can have a disastrous effect on a young writer, who either comes under the influence of Proust's dangerously idiosyncratic and contagious style or who feels that Proust has already done everything possible in the novel form. Even Walter Benjamin, who became Proust's German translator, wrote the philosopher Theodor Adorno that he did not want to read one more word by Proust than was actually necessary for him to translate because otherwise he would become addictively dependent, which would be an obstacle to his own production. Graham Greene once wrote: "Proust was the greatest novelist of the twentieth century, just as Tolstoy was in the nineteenth.... For those who began to write at the end of the twenties or the beginning of the thirties, there were two great inescapable influences: Proust and Freud, who are mutually complementary." Certainly Proust's fame and prestige have eclipsed those of Joyce, Beckett, Virginia Woolf and Faulkner, of Hemingway and Fitzgerald, of Gide and Valery and Genet, of Thomas Mann and Bertolt Brecht, for if some of these writers are more celebrated than Proust in their own country, Proust is the only one to have a uniformly international reputation. The young Andrew Holleran, who would go on to publish the most important American gay novel of the seventies

MARCEL PROUST: A SHORT LITERARY BIOGRAPHY Basic references for Proust studies Home Search Comments Marcel Proust
(Auteuil, 10 July 1871 - Paris, 18 November 1922)
Marcel Proust was born to bourgeois parents living in Paris. His father was a doctor and his mother came from a rich and cultured Jewish family. Beginning in his childhood and continuing throughout his life, Proust suffered from chronic asthma attacks. His literary talent became evident during his high school ( ) years. He began to frequent salons such as that of Mme Arman, a friend of Anatole France. Under the patronage of the latter, Proust published in 1896 his first book, Les Plaisirs et les Jours , a collection of short stories, essays and poems. It was not very successful. Proust had begun in autumn 1895 a novel which he later abandoned in autumn 1899 and never finished. It was finally published in 1952 as Jean Santeuil After this second setback, Proust devoted several years to translating and annotating the works of the English art historian John Ruskin. He published a number of articles on Ruskin, as well as two translations: La Bible d'Amiens in 1904 and in 1906. The prefaces to these early works anticipate Proust's subsequent stylistic and esthetic development. "Sur la lecture", the preface to
