The internal autobiography of an author: Proust

Marcel Proust(1871-1922) author of the Recherché, seven books where he describes, without confess it, the society of Paris during his time. Of belle Epoque; he anyway tells also although summarily about himself , he remember some episode of his childhood and t6he memories and the impression are more stressed than in other writers, it means that he tells himself. Proust anyway is a very expert of his psychology, pity that hasn’t never explained because he has written to his mother that was in stair down; he hasn’t said but we can understand it, because his mother was the disaffective reference. The first romance To the side of Swann is a begin consideration, almost an autobiography, of his dynamic of wit: “The author has lost every orientation, he is doubting even of his identity…After he takes again some notions, he meet it, he compare it. He recognize the town where he is, but the memory is moving and it brings to other rooms, other towns, to other times. He is is child in Combray when his room was the fix point and sorrowful of his attentions”. This long first exam is necessary to stress the personal description of Proust; he describes his personal memories, his impressions, and he translated it to literature; hence we can know Proust to his interior side. The autobiography is by begin: “For much time I have laid early. Sometime turned off the candle, the eyes are closed…” the comment to these words is: “I don’t give cure”, certainly but I want  stress the autobiography  of Marcel that describes it; this is the egocentric personality that shows lacks of affect very deep; the egocentrism is usually, be4cause determined from  the lack of affect, the compensation of affect is unconsciously searched out  of family; it is explain the rapport to his mother. The description of every singular particular is typical of a confession absolutely useless; I have remembered the description of Francois de la Rochefocauld(1613-1680), that has said: “When we are engaged we live a ideal condition because we speak about of ourselves alone”; we can think that Proust was engaged to himself, but effectively in his romances he speaks, because it is the unique reference possible for to have affect, it is alone a compensation to the public. But Proust is a men and he has had then will  of a man: “Sometime, as Eve is born  from a rib of Adam, in the sleep, from a false position of my thigh, was born a woman”; it is a common think for the men, he continues: “She is shaped from the pleasure that I will taste, I imagined that herself to offer it”; it one elegant form to confess his will of fuck he continues: “The  my body, that felt in her body the my heat…the other being seem very distant, to confront to this woman  that I have left from some moment; and the following effect is very real…The hers memory disappeared, I have forgotten the creature of my dream”, it is some step autobiographic of Proust, that  wanted show himself to the reader, he has searched the affect in the public.
