Beschreibung

"Là-bas" is a novel by Joris-Karl Huysmans, first published in 1891. The story follows the disillusioned and decadent Parisian writer, Durtal, as he becomes obsessed with the life and deeds of the infamous 15th-century serial killer Gilles de Rais. Durtal's research leads him to become involved with a secret society of Satanists, who practice occult rituals and engage in orgies. As Durtal becomes increasingly entangled in their world, he begins to experience strange and unsettling events that lead him to question his own sanity. Ultimately, Durtal must confront the dark forces that he has become involved with and decide whether to continue down the path of darkness or to turn away from it. "Là-bas" is a seminal work of the Decadent movement in literature, and is known for its exploration of themes of evil, Satanism, and the occult.

Portrait

French novelist and art critic Joris-Karl Huysmans (1848-1907) is most known for his contributions to the literature of the Decadent movement. Huysmans, who was born and reared in Paris, first worked as a civil servant before deciding to become a writer. His best-known book, " rebours" (Against Nature), examined the life of a rich and eccentric nobleman who isolates himself from society and engages in hedonistic activities. This book brought him recognition. Together with "Là-bas," this piece elevated Huysmans to the position of a key player in the Decadent movement, which praised artifice, sensuality, and decadence. Huysmans converted to Catholicism later in life, and this spiritual transformation is reflected in his later works. He has had a lasting impact on French literature and culture.
