  Paul Bourget - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paul Charles Joseph Bourget (September 2, 1852–December 25, 1935), was a French novelist and critic.
As a writer of verse Bourget was merely experimenting, and his poems, which were collected in two volumes (1885–1887), are chiefly interesting for the light which they throw upon his mature method and the later products of his art.
Bourget has been charged with pessimism, and with undue delineation of one social class, but there is no despair in his own outlook upon human destiny as a whole.

Upon seeing Joseph Bridau in the diligence, while the artist and his mother were on a journey in 1822, he remarked that he would not care to meet him at night in the corner of a forest--he looked so much like a highwayman.
She likewise awaited with some impatience the arrival of Joseph Bridau in Issoudun, wishing to inspire some sentiment in him, and taking the liveliest interest in the painter, on account of the monstrosities which were attributed to him because of his being an artist.

But France, fortunately for Bourget, is not one of those places where the foundation is likely to be laid in vain, or the period of probation to endure for ever and ever.
In fiction, Bourget carries realistic observation beyond the externals (which fixed the attention of Zola and Maupassant) to states of the mind: he unites the method of Stendhal to that of Balzac.
Bourget is, indeed, the past-master of "psychological" fiction.

 Chapter 7. Mark Twain. Van Doren, Carl. 1921. The American Novel
Stowe and Charles Dudley Warner; and with Warner, who to the Mark Twain of that period seemed an important man of letters, he collaborated in a novel, The Gilded Age, which appeared in 1873.
The more conventional elements in the book, the Easterners, Philip Sterling and Henry Brierly, and their loves and fortunes, are Warner’s; the more original, the sections portraying Western life and satirizing Congress and Washington, are Mark Twain’s.
Heretical as he might be in his theology, he nevertheless employed—when he employed anything of the sort—the Christian mythology of the Sunday school, God and Satan, Heaven and Eden, the patriarchs and the heathen, all of them referred to in a language immediately understood by the populace which, with or without faith, shared that mythology.
