Correspondance générale 1808-1809

The volume contains 422 letters. Constant marries Charlotte von Hardenberg, which leads to an estrangement from Germaine de Staël, his fellow-writer and mistress of long standing. In the letters from this period, political life takes a back seat, and after the appearance of Wallstein his literary creativity enters a dormant phase. The reader is confronted above all with Constant’s turbulent private life.
