It is not my intention here to enter into an analysis of this curious work; and I shall satisfy myself with referring such of my readers as appreciate the pictures of the period to its pages. They will therein find portraits penciled by the hand of a master; and although these squibs may be, for the most part, traced upon the doors of barracks and the walls of cabarets, they will not find the likenesses of Louis XIII, Anne of Austria, Richelieu, Mazarin, and the courtiers of the period, less faithful than in the history of M. Anquetil. But, it is well known, what strikes the capricious mind of the poet is not always what affects the mass of readers. Now, while admiring, as others doubtless will admire, the details we have to relate, our main preoccupation concerned a matter to which no one before ourselves had given a thought. From the moment we had no rest till we could find some trace in contemporary works of these extraordinary names which had so strongly awakened our curiosity.

Extractions: The following biographical information was taken from DISCovering World History on CD-ROM, 1996 by Gale Research Dumas was a major playwright who helped to revolutionize French drama and theater. He was one of the best historical novelists, publishing more than two hundred novels. Nationality: French Birth Date: July 24, 1802 Birth Place: Villers-Cotterêts, France Death Date: December 5, 1870 Death Place: Puys, France Occupation(s): playwright and novelist Alexandre Dumas is usually designated père to distinguish him from his father and son of the same name. The son, known as fils, was also an important writer of drama and of fiction. Dumas father was an impoverished, disillusioned general in Napoleons Egyptian campaign. His prowess and exploits were models for the character Porthos and for many incidents in Dumas works. Dumas was born in the village of Villers-Cotterêts on July 24, 1802, the grandson of a Haitian slave. Though Dumas had published fiction earlier and drama later, the real shift to fiction came in 1842, with the publication of his first great historical novel, Le Chevalier dHarmental (1842; English translation, 1856). The following years saw the publication of his most popular, though not regarded as his best, novels, Les Trois Mousquetaires (1844; The Three Musketeers, 1846), Le Comte de Monte-Cristo (1844-1845; The Count of Monte-Cristo, 1846), and La Tulipe Noire (1850; The Black Tulip, 1851).

Extractions: The grandson of a Haitian slave, he became the most famous author in France; now, his rousing Romantic novels are enjoying renewed popularity The action-packed novels of 19th-century French author Alexandre Dumas continue to intrigue millions of readers around the world, 150 years after their creation. The stories have been translated into almost a hundred languages, and the most famous, The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo , have inspired more than 100 of the 200 films based on Dumas's works. Few people know, however, that the author was the grandson of a Haitian slave, or that Dumas's mulatto father rose rapidly through the ranks of the French Army to become a legendary general by the age of 31. Though the general died young, leaving his son without an inheritance, Dumas overcame poverty, the lack of formal education, and the constant wear and tear of 19th-century racism to become one of the world's most popular writers. By the time Dumas was 35, he had laid the foundations of bourgeois drama, helped stage a Romantic revolution in theater, and helped create a new kind of Romantic novel. Dumas's life sometimes seemed as action-packed as his novels; he participated in three revolutions, courted countless women and dueled when his honor was insulted. Luckily for his fans, the lavish chateau he built outside Paris, always open to starving artists, the families of mistresses, and even strangers, has recently been restored and opened to the public.

Il y a là Nanine, la servante, et le vicomte de Varville qui attendent Marguerite. Arrive Marguerite Gautier, qui rentre de l'Opéra et qui demande à Nanine de faire préparer le souper. Ils passent au salon et le vicomte de Varville se met au piano. Marguerite se moque de son obstination : ce dernier a fait livrer un bouquet de roses et de lilas blancs. Marguerite avoue au Vicomte que si son surnom est la Dame aux camélias , c'est justement parce qu'elle n'aime que ces fleurs-là et qu'il est inutile de lui en offrir d'autres. Entre un joyeux couple : Prudence et Gaston. Ils sont accompagnés d'un homme plus discret : Armand Duval, secrètement amoureux de Marguerite. Prudence et Gaston présentent Armand et apprennent à Marguerite combien Armand s'est inquiété pour sa santé. Marguerite reproche au comte de Varville, son manque d'intérêt. Armand propose alors un toast. Marguerite le remercie et indique qu'elle souhaite danser. Elle demande à Gaston de jouer. Marguerite commence à danser puis s'interrompt, prise soudain par l'une de ses crises de phtisies. Elle demande à rester seule. Armand Duval, toutefois, veut rester avec elle. Il lui déclare alors son amour. Marguerite, malgré son trouble, relativise : "..
