Summary "Le possédé: étude passionnelle" by Camille Lemonnier is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative delves into the psychological intricacies of its protagonist, President Lépervié, who grapples with his emotions, societal expectations, and personal afflictions in a somber, cold landscape that mirrors his internal struggles. The central theme likely revolves around obsession, desire, and the moral complexities of his relationships, particularly with women in his life. The opening of the novel immerses readers in the troubled psyche of President Lépervié, who is beset by physical ailments and an overwhelming sense of ennui. He battles feelings of inadequacy and introspective troubles that manifest through vivid imagery associated with his surroundings, such as a desolate winter landscape. As he reflects on his emotional detachment and the dynamics within his household, particularly with his wife and the enigmatic schoolmistress Rakma, Lépervié’s existential crises come to the forefront. His discomfort with his environment and the connection between his physical state and emotional malaise sets a tone that explores the depths of human passion and the conflicts that arise from desire and duty.
