Note 387 — BOOK XI[336]
Alexander Teixeira de Mattos translation
Chateaubriand does not give the date of this letter, which must have been written in September 1810. Madame de Staël tells, in her Dix années d'exil (Part II., chap, i.), how she corrected the last proof of l'Allemagne on the 23rd of September 1810, and how she made a list of one hundred persons to whom she wished to send copies in different parts of France and Europe.—B.
