Summary "Les Romanciers d'Aujourd'hui" by Charles Le Goffic is a literary critique written in the late 19th century. The work discusses contemporary novelists, categorizing them into various schools such as naturalists, impressionists, and symbolists, while also providing insights into the individual styles and contributions of these writers. The text likely targets readers interested in understanding the trends and movements in late 19th-century French literature through the lens of its practitioners. The opening of "Les Romanciers d'Aujourd'hui" begins with an introduction that sets the stage for a series of studies on contemporary writers, emphasizing the author's intent to categorize and analyze modern novelists. Le Goffic outlines the complexity of distinguishing between the myriad styles and schools of thought within literature and acknowledges the challenges inherent in discussing all living novelists. He leads into a classification of naturalist writers, presenting a critical view of their works while engaging in a discussion of realism and its evolution. Through examples drawn from the literary landscape of his time, the text highlights the debates surrounding naturalism, the role of art, and the nature of creativity, suggesting an intricate relationship between social contexts and literary expressions.
