Jules Sandeau

Jules Sandeau (February 19th 1811 with Aubusson - April 24th 1883 with Paris) is a French novelist and dramatic author.

Wire of a receiver of the taxes, it makes its studies with Bourges then launches out to Paris without much conviction in studies of right. It meets Aurore Dudevant, future the George Sand, with which it engages a connection and writes a novel, Rose and Blanche, or the Actress and the nun , who appears in 1831 under the name of Jules Sand. This name, George Sand will partly keep it for it. It is as by him as it becomes acquainted with Honore de Balzac, with which Jules Sandeau is used during a certain time as secretary. Miss of Seiglière , her most popular work, is partly an exploration of the relation which it maintains with Balzac. It is preserving with the Bibliothèque Mazarine in 1854 and becomes member of the French Academy in 1858. Jules Sandeau is the author of about fifty novels and plays, these last having known of sound living a greater success than the first.

Jules Sandeau and Honore de Balzac

The small Jules met Balzac in 1834, it entrusted its despair to him after its rupture with George Sand, acknowledging which it planned to commit suicide, which it was without resources and goal. Balzac proposed to him to settle Rue Cassini and to help it to write a drama whose scenario was already ready: the Large Miss . But the capacity for work of Balzac quickly frightened the Sandeau young person who complained about it “that it was awaked in start by Titan eager to read me fresh pages of the new novel or to harness me with the correction of its innumerable tests. ”. Finally, the opinion of Balzac on Jules Sandeau will rather quickly join that of George Sand who had considered to be the small Jules lazy, nonchalant, without will. It could check it since 1836, when Jules Sandeau flees of the street Cassini, leaving with its guard all his debts and an unpaid rent. Irony of the literary history, the small Jules will be allowed with the French Academy whereas the Titan Honore is it never.
