Les Filles du feu
''Les Filles du feu'' ((英語:''The Daughters of Fire'')) is a collection of short prose works, poetry, and a play published by the French poet Gérard de Nerval in January 1854, a year before his death. During 1853, Nerval had suffered three nervous breakdowns and spent five months in an asylum. He saw ''Les Filles du feu'' as an opportunity to show the public, his friends, and his father that he was sane,〔Bony, Jacques. "Introduction", ''Les Filles du feu'' by Gérard de Nerval. Paris: GF Flammarion, 1994.〕 though except for the introduction all of the pieces in ''Les Filles du feu'' had been published previously: "Angélique" in ''Les Faux Saulniers'' (1850), "Sylvie" in ''La Revue des Deux Mondes'' (1853), and "Émilie," "Jemmy," "Isis," and "Octavie" in diverse reviews.
The precise meaning of the title, which Nerval chose just before publication, is uncertain. Scholars have identified its source as the ceremonies of Irish vestal virgins described in Michelet's ''Histoire de France'' (1833) or a poem in a novel by Alexandre Dumas, ''La Tulipe noire'' (1850).
==Introduction==
''Les Filles du feu'' is dedicated to Alexandre Dumas, Nerval's friend and collaborator on works for the theater. The previous December, Dumas had published an essay attributing Nerval's mental crises to an excess of creative imagination, an exaggerated emotional identification with the historic figures he wrote about. In his introduction to the volume, Nerval elaborates on Dumas' analysis, describing how their old friend Charles Nodier once claimed he had been guillotined during the French Revolution. He discusses how writers and actors identify with their subjects. He also hints at a future volume describing his crises.
