Beschreibung

“This Diary contains no story and no very thrilling adventure. While cruising about on the coasts of the Mediterranean last spring, I amused myself by writing down every day what I saw and what I thought. I saw but the water, the sun, clouds and rocks – I can tell of nought else –, and my thoughts were mere nothings, such as are suggested by the rocking of the waves, lulling and bearing one along.” Guy de Maupassant

Guy de Maupassant, © Nadard

Henry-René-Albert-Guy de Maupassant was born on 5 August 1850 at the Château de Miromesnil in Tourville-sur-Arques and died on 6 July 1893 in Paris. He was a French writer and literary journalist who wrote under the name Guy de Maupassant.

Maupassant left his mark on French literature with his novels and short stories.

He took a cruise on his private yacht, named „Bel-Ami“ after his eponymous novel. This cruise, where he passed through Cannes, Agay and Saint-Tropez, inspired him to write „Sur l’eau“ (Afloat).
