Résumé

The Duello in France is Arthur Conan Doyle's sharp, insightful, and historically rich exploration of one of Europe's most romanticized and dangerous customs: the duel. In this autobiographical essay, Doyle delves into the tradition of French dueling with both fascination and critique, offering a vivid narrative informed by personal study and cultural observation. With the precision of a historian and the flair of a novelist, he recounts gripping real-life duels, exposes their often absurd codes of honor, and reflects on how this lethal ritual persisted in a supposedly civilized society.
More than a historical account, this is Doyle in his element-dissecting human behavior, honor, and ego through the lens of a bygone European institution. As much a meditation on masculinity and violence as it is a cultural essay, The Duello in France is a compelling and elegant piece of nonfiction from one of literature's most versatile minds.
