About
Through Atala Chateaubriand contrasts nature and religion through descriptions of the primitive American landscape. Written with a lyrical and unbridled romantic voice, the tale is in the tradition of unrequited love —between Chactas and Atala— that brings to mind the romances of Tristan and Isolde, Romeo and Juliet, Paris and Helen of Troy, Odysseus and Penelope, and Orpheus and Eurydice—among others. This translation captures the author's style in contemporary American English, in contrast to other earlier centuries translations that are difficult to read.
