Flowers, butterflies and fossils crowd her letters: a Bourges talk follows the naturalist inside one of the great authors of the Berry.

About this event


⚠️ Event concluded. Please check our updated agenda to discover new activities in this region.

A hundred and fifty years after her death, George Sand is read for far more than her references to the Berry. This Bourges talk turns to the other Sand: the correspondent who came back again and again to flowers, butterflies and fossils. Her letters are set beside her published writings, and together they show a genuinely naturalist way of looking. Among the great authors of her time she is seldom presented in that light.
