Weird women : being a literal translation of "Les Diaboliques" of Barbey d'Aurevilly
First published in 1874 Les Diaboliques caused an uproar and all the copies were seized on the orders of the Ministry of Justice as the book was a danger to public morality. Scandal made the book an immediate success. One hundred and thirty years later it is now firmly established as a classic and studied in French schools. "The book is a celebration of the seven deadly vices and shows no counterbalancing interest in the seven cardinal virtues. Even more, it is a celebration of pride, the pride of the ancient aristocracy of evil. Those who have the style to carry off their vices have also the right to do so." D'Aurevilly introduces us to the she-devils, a group of femme fatales who share their trials and triumphs.
"Les Diaboliques est un recueil de six nouvelles de Jules Barbey d'Aurevilly, paru en novembre 1874 à Paris chez l'éditeur Dentu. Le projet de ce recueil de nouvelles devait s'intituler à l'origine Ricochets de conversation. Il fallut cependant près de vingt-cinq ans à Barbey pour le voir paraître puisqu'il y travaillait déjà en 1850 lorsqu'il fit paraître Le dessous de cartes d'une partie de whist dans le journal La Mode dans un feuilleton en trois parties, La Revue des Deux Mondes l'ayant refusé. Barbey revint en Normandie à la faveur des événements de la Commune et l'acheva en 1873."
"Autorem šesti brilantních próz (Karmazínová záclona, Nejkrásnější láska Dona Juana, Štěstí v zločinu, Rub karet whistové partie, Na hostině ateistů, Pomsta ženy) z r. 1874 je udivující stylista a výtečný duch Francie 19.století, blízký myšlení Baudelairovu. Rozvíjí v nich svou myšlenku, že ztělesnění zla ďábel, převtělující se do ženské podoby, zasahuje všude do lidských počínání. Představuje toto ďáblovo úsilí v obrazech spjatých rodem sromantismem isadismem, domníval se Barbey, že každého od podobných skutků odradí. Neboť jak sám říká, ďábelskost jeho novel je pouze v tom, že jsou to "skutečné příběhy dnešní doby pokroku a tak ušlechtilé a vznešenévzdělanosti, že přijde-liněkomu na mysl je napsat, má dojem, že mu je diktoval Ďábel! ...""

"Extrait : ""Cette femme, en effet, prenait encore plus le regard que l'homme qui l'accompagnait, et elle le captivait plus longtemps. Elle était grande comme lui. Sa tête atteignait presque à la sienne. Et, comme elle était aussi tout en noir, elle faisait penser à la grande Isis noire du Musée Egyptien, par l'ampleur de ses formes, la fierté mystérieuse et la force."""
