About This Item
1850s Chateaubriand ATALA Native American Indians NATCHEZ 12v SET Complete Works
"You are not superior just because you see the world in an odious light."
― François-René de Chateaubriand
'Atala' is a short novel by French author François-René de Chateaubriand, a work that was an important work of Romanticism. It follows the story of travels and voyages in North America, encounters with Cherokee Indians, wilderness exploration, European missionaries in America, and themes of forbidden love.
This work, and numerous others, are included in this beautiful 19th-century, 12-volume set of the works of Chateaubriand. Other notable works included in this set include:
• "Les Martyrs"
• "The Genius of Christianity" – a classic defense of Catholicism written during the French Revolution at a time when the science and French Enlightenment was influencing all aspects of life
• "Les Natchez" – an historical fiction account of the Natchez people containing Chateaubriand's own views and experiences among the Native American tribe.
