Abstract The canon of nineteenth-century French literature begins with a strange coupling. At the turn of the century, Frarnçois-René de Chateaubriand published his first two novels separately, only to pair them a few years later. Together, the two works form a diptych in which men exchange stories about the dead women who had loved them. In Atala, a half-civilized American Indian, Chactas, tells how his lover, Atala, died to save her virginity.
