Translated by Bérengère Drillien

Monsieur Bergeret in Paris is a novel by Anatole France, first published in 1901. It follows Monsieur Bergeret, a reflective professor, as he navigates life in Paris with his daughter Pauline, sister Zoe, and their dog Riquet. The story examines social change, familial relationships, and philosophical reflections on life and culture during the 19th century, highlighting the tensions between individual desires and societal expectations. France, a Nobel Prize winner in 1921, offers a poignant critique of the intellectual life of his time, including themes of antisemitism and middle-class struggles.

“Na sociedade, cada qual deve dar e receber. Se esse homem não dá muita coisa, é, sem dúvida, porque não recebeu o bastante.””

— Anatole France

“Só dá verdadeiramente quem dá o próprio trabalho, a própria alma, o próprio gênio. E a excelsa oferenda de si mesmo a toda a humanidade tanto enriquece o doador quanto a comunidade.””

— Anatole France

“A caridade humana é o concurso de todos na produção e na partilha dos frutos. Ela é justiça, é amor, e os pobres a exercem melhor que os ricos.””

— Anatole France

“Eu não espero que os adversários da verdade confessem que se enganaram. Uma atitude como essa só é possível às almas mais elevadas.””

— Anatole France

“Eu já não encontro tanto prazer, confesso, em ver essa gente elegante, depois que uma máquina pôs em movimento o fanatismo estúpido e a obtusa crueldade desses pequenos cérebros.””

— Anatole France

“Todos os progressos são incertos e lentos, e não raro acompanhados de movimentos retrógrados. A marcha em direção a uma melhor ordem das coisas é hesitante e confusa. Forças numerosas e profundas ligam o homem ao passado e fazem-no apegar-se aos erros, às superstições, aos preconceitos e às barbaridades, como valiosos penhores de segurança. qualquer novidade salutar os assusta. Ele é um imitador por prudência, e não ousa abandonar o abrigo vacilante que protegeu seus pais e que há de desabar sobre ele.””

— Anatole France
