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.
George Sand et les sciences naturelles
Flowers, butterflies and fossils crowd her letters: a Bourges talk follows the naturalist inside one of the great authors of the Berry.
