«LUST» BY CH. SAINTE-BEUVE AND «LILY IN THE VALLEY» BY H. DE BALZAC: A DISPUTE ABOUT A NOVEL

Abstract

The article considers the typological similarity of plots of «Lust» by Sainte-Beuve and «Lily in the Valley» by H. de Balzac and existing differences between novels in resolving the basic conflict, and characterization of the main characters of the narrative style, which can be explained by different ideological and philosophical and aesthetic positions of the authors. Artistic dialogue between writers fit into a landmark dispute about the development of literature, the relationship between art and life and the artistic potential of the novel genre.
