Lucien Leuwen
open-in-new
<p><i>Lucien Leuwen</i> is the second major novel written by French author <a href="/facts/Stendhal/vgRBY22t">Stendhal</a> in 1834, following <i><a href="/facts/The_Red_and_the_Black/pgWvjMCm">The Red and the Black</a></i> (1830). It remained unfinished due to the political culture of the <a href="/facts/July_Monarchy/BERk9abz">July Monarchy</a> in the 1830s and Stendhal's fears of losing his government position by offending the administration. It was published posthumously in 1894. </p>
