"Narcissus? A burglar? An illusionist? The dandy never stops changing roles, putting himself on stage in order to protect his true self and maintain his independence. But let us not forget that his first obligation is to amaze. As a master of appearances, he invents poses and derives pleasure from hiding his face behind multiple masks to confuse his audience. From Fortunio to Arsène Lupin, not forgetting the dandy woman, from Saint-Just to Romain Gary, the sixteen studies in this book present an exceptional gallery of figures that delineate the history of dandyism. We will discover the art of being a dandy and unexpected, even surprising incarnations (both literary and historical) of this mysterious character. So, masks up! Let the show begin!"-- Provided by publisher.

Thus, one may encounter or find here: N. Casanova, G. Darien, L. d'Herdy, J. de Tinan, L. Bloy, H. Céard, O. Mirbeau, J. Lorrain, P. Louÿs, R. Vivien, Rachilde, C. Mendès, J.-K. Huysmans, H. Fleischmann. Here is a guide which aims to accompany the reader in his (re)discovery of the finisecular universe by inviting him to face its mysteries. Qu'ils soient naturalistes, décadents, anarchistes ou symbolistes, les romanciers fin-de-siècle se livrent à la quête du rare et de l'étrange, luttent contre les angoisses et les chimères, cherchent à briser, voire dépasser les limites du roman. Le présent ouvrage propose de réfléchir sur la richesse de la création romanesque de l'époque crépusculaire en réunissant quatorze contributions consacrées aussi bien aux classiques qu'aux auteurs rarement étudiés, voire méconnus. Ainsi se rencontrent ou se retrouvent dans ce lieu N. Casanova, G. Darien, L. d'Herdy, J. de Tinan, L. Bloy, H. Céard, O. Mirbeau, J. Lorrain, P. Louÿs, R. Vivien, Rachilde, C. Mendès, J.-K.
