BIOGRAPHY:
Marcel Proust was born on July 10, 1871 in Paris, of Adrien Proust, aggregate professor of medicine, and Jeanne Weil, girl of a rich person stockbroker. Marcel Proust is a nervous, sensitive child and maladivement attached to his mother. Moreover it suffers from the bronchi and undergoes violent attacks of asthma. After having followed brilliant studies to the Condorcet college, it follows political courses of sciences and obtains an arts degree in 1892. It has attended for a few years the literary living rooms and collaborates in a small review: "The Banquet".
In 1894, it spends its holidays between Trouville to Cabourg, area which one will find in "A the Research of Wasted Time".
In 1900, it leaves to Venice with his mother and is devoted to questions of esthetics. It publishes a translation of the critic of English art John Ruskin (the Bible of Amiens) whose designs will mark it and modify its manner of seeing the things.

His/her father dies in 1903 and his mother in 1905. The mourning of his/her mother will affect it during several years.
After the death of his/her parents, his health worsens. It lives as recluse in a papered cork apartment and hermetically closed and becomes exhausted with work, working during the night, resting the day.
Its œuvre principal, "A the Research Of Wasted Time", is published between 1913 and 1927. In 1919, it receives the Goncourt price for the second volume, "A the Shade Of the Girls In Flowers". Its unavowable homosexuality in the company of the time is diffuse in its œuvre. Exhausted, Marcel Proust dies of a pneumonia on November 18, 1922.
