Bücher der Reihe ¿uvres complètes, IX

Volume 9 of the Correspondance générale comprises 416 letters that Constant wrote or received between 1813 and 1815. They clearly illustrate his eagerness to start a career in French politics. While initially, he was stuck in the isolation and monotony of married life in Göttingen, his personal situation was further complicated in 1814/15 by his unrequited, passionate love for Juliette Récamier.
