In a famous work by this author, the title character pays Jean Breville to seduce her, asking, "can love be merely this?" His first work dealt with the psychological implications of impotency and a famous novel of his follows a character who deserts his post as a cavalry lieutenant in Nancy. Two lesser- known works are his extensive biography of the composer Rossini and his autobiographical Life of Henry Brulard. His early work On Love proposed a rational analysis of romantic passion, while Memoirs of an Egotist appeared posthumously. His namesake syndrome occurs when one becomes overwhelmed by unfathomable cultural riches. FTP, name this author who wrote about Fabrice Del Dongo and the Battle of Waterloo in The Charterhouse of Parma and about Julian Sorel in The Red and the Black.
