Racial profiling in Borel’s Passereau

Passereau had a strange aspect and a meridional complexion; the bourgeois guards found his air to be dangerous for a monarchy; and during the times of civil disturbances, many times had he been arrested and imprisoned for the crime of illegal carrying of a swarthy head.

Petrus Borel, Passereau, The Student, from Champavert (1833)

#french romanticism #petrus borel #passereau #chamapavert #unforgettable part #still want to reread to analyze what borel is doing with hispanicness in that story #translation attempt by me

Medicine students in 1800’s french fiction who show an affinity for spanish language/culture:

-combeferre

-passereau

#structuralist analysis done right #i am not serious obviously x)#but i am thinking hard on what la hispanidad -and italian-ness-means to the french romantic crew #and it’s a variety of things lol #but combeferre’s case seems different from the main trend #and he only said ‘hombre’ once but I can’t help but wonder why why hombre in spanish hugo what do you meannnn
