On Love

Book Review

Henri Beyle, better known by his pseudonym Stendhal, in his work "De l'amour," explores the complex labyrinths of human emotions with his characteristic depth and insight. This book, which is both a philosophical treatise and a psychological study, reveals to the reader the diversity of love experiences, from exalted passion to tormenting jealousy. Stendhal, as a true master of words, uses rich language and metaphors to convey the subtle nuances of emotions experienced by a person in love. Critics note that the author succeeded in creating not just a description of love but also offering the reader a kind of map of its manifestations, where everyone can find a reflection of their own feelings. In this work, Stendhal appears not only as a writer but also as a philosopher, contemplating the nature of love and its impact on the human soul. His work remains relevant today, evoking interest and admiration from new generations of readers.
