Frédéric
Résumé
"Frédéric" by Joseph Fiévée is a novel written in the early 19th century. The story introduces readers to Frédéric, a young man whose upbringing has been entrusted to a well-meaning but ineffectual country curate. As he navigates the challenges of his education and the complexities of social expectations, the narrative explores themes of identity, upbringing, and the nuances of human relationships. The opening of the novel establishes Frédéric's background as he recounts his education under the curé of Mareil, who seems more invested in abstract educational theories than practical guidance. The curate's erratic teaching methods both amuse and frustrate Frédéric, leading to a sense of disconnection from structured learning. As he grapples with feelings of abandonment and a longing for familial connection, he prepares to leave his rural life behind for Paris, where he hopes to find his true identity and purpose. This transition sets the stage for Frédéric's encounters with various characters who will shape his journey, including the influential Monsieur de Vignoral and the enigmatic valet Philippe.
