Aziyadé (1879; also known as Constantinople) is a novel by French author Pierre Loti. Originally published anonymously, it was his first book, and along with Le Mariage de Loti (1880, also published anonymously), would introduce the author to the French public and quickly propel him to fame; because of this, his anonymous persona did not last long.

  • Aziyadé estas romano verkita de Pierre Loti en 1879. Tiu kortuŝa "romano" fakte estas aŭtobiografiaĵo, apenaŭ "aranĝita", aŭ cenzurita, ĉe kelkaj detaloj. La vera amato de Pierre Loti nomiĝis Hatiĝe, tiu amo efektis lian tutan vivon, ne nur stampante la senton pri la tragikeco de l'homa vivo, kaj ankaŭ tutviva favoro al Turkio kaj turkoj, sed ekzemple li finfine venigis en sia propra domo la tombŝtonon de Hatiĝe/Aziyadé.

  • Aziyadé (1879; also known as Constantinople) is a novel by French author Pierre Loti. Originally published anonymously, it was his first book, and along with Le Mariage de Loti (1880, also published anonymously), would introduce the author to the French public and quickly propel him to fame; because of this, his anonymous persona did not last long. Aziyadé is semi-autobiographical, based on a diary Loti kept during a three-month period as a French Naval officer in Greece and Constantinople (now Istanbul) in the fall and winter of 1876. It tells the story of the 27-year-old Loti's illicit love affair with an 18-year-old "Circassian" harem girl named Aziyadé. Although Aziyadé was one of many conquests in the exotic romantic's life, she was his greatest love, and he would wear a gold ring with her name on it for the rest of his life. Forming a love triangle, the book also describes Loti's "friendship" with a Spanish man servant named Samuel, for which most critics believe, based on Loti's diary entries, that some sort of homosexual affair occurred (indeed some believe Aziyadé never existed and the entire work is a cover for a homosexual love story, however others say the evidence for Aziyadé's existence seems overwhelming, (See Blanch)). It also describes Loti's love affair with Turkish culture which became a central part of his "exotica" persona. The only known English translation is by Marjorie Laurie which can be found in many editions, no longer in copyright; however, some of the parts have been sanitized regarding harem life, prostitution and homosexuality. The original French first edition is very rare and has become a highly prized collectors item. (en)

  • Aziyadé est le premier roman de Pierre Loti, publié anonymement en 1879. Le livre a pour thème une histoire d'amour dans le cadre exotique de la Turquie de 1876-1877 entre un officier de marine européen et une jeune femme du harem d'un riche vieillard, d'abord à Salonique puis à Istanbul (Loti l'écrit Istambul ou Stamboul et utilise parfois le nom de Constantinople). Pierre Loti présente d'ailleurs lui-même le roman comme « le récit, circonstancié et agrémenté de descriptions, d'une amourette à la turque » (Eyoub à deux, XXIII), mais la mort dramatique de l'aimée abandonnée malgré lui par le héros amènera celui-ci à prendre conscience de la profondeur de sa passion et lui fera rechercher la mort. Pierre Loti a écrit ainsi une version exotique du mythe romantique de l'amour tragique, les amants reposant tous deux dans la terre turque mais en des lieux différents. La forme du roman est originale, mêlant à la fois le journal intime du héros et la correspondance qu'il échange avec des proches et qui permet le recul par rapport à l'intrigue. Pierre Loti exploite aussi la fragmentation stylistique en utilisant des paragraphes brefs et juxtaposés regroupés dans des chapitres eux-mêmes courts, ce qui crée une sorte de contrepoint au thème romantique de l'œuvre. Le roman — moins lu aujourd'hui — reste emblématique de l'orientalisme qui a marqué la littérature et les arts du XIXe siècle en France. (fr)
