Lucien Leuwen
''Lucien Leuwen'' is the second major novel written by French author Stendhal in 1834, following ''The Red and the Black'' (1830). It remained unfinished due to the political culture of the July Monarchy in the 1830s and Stendhal's fears of losing his government position by offending the administration. It was published posthumously in 1894.
==Background and Composition==
Stendhal wrote ''Lucien Leuwen'' while serving as consul for Louis-Philippe in Civitavecchia. "I’m making the first draft too long," Stendhal wrote about ''Lucien Leuwen'' in his journal. "In Marseilles, in 1828 I think, I made the manuscript of the ''Rouge'' too short. When I wanted to get it printed in Lutèce (), I had to add to it instead of cutting a few pages and correcting the style ... That is why I’m making this 200 pages too long, so that when I take it to Paris, after either I or the J (Monarchy ) fall, I will have only two things to do: 1. Cut pages and phrases; 2. Make the style clearer still and more flowing, less abrupt."
Stendhal wound up only revising the first part. The July Monarchy lasted until the French Revolution of 1848, six years after Stendhal’s death, and Stendhal could not afford to risk his official post in Civitavecchia. The novel as we have it consists of the original draft of the first two parts.
