Alexandre Dumas, Fabrique d'Immortalite

Alexandre Dumas admired the Pantheon from afar, and the illustrious figures laid to rest there. Like Chateaubriand, who deplored the fate of the "de-pantheonised" Mirabeau, he considered what his own glorious tomb could be: his oeuvre. This book retraces the posthumous thought of Dumas and his work.
