Abstract
In the wake of the Napoleonic armies, Stendhal had spent many years in Italy, but his viaticum was largely the result of his imagination and his desire to become an aesthete. The representation he gives of the Peninsula and especially of Rome is characterized first by his predilection for fragment, spontaneous impression and humorous alacrity, then by its acuity in relation to the populations whose mores he describes.
