Abstract: In the Érotique comparée, Villers sets up the grounds of French Romanticism, and applies the idea of nationality to the comparative study of literature. He suggests a transcendent reading of the relations between civilization and artistic devices. His essay, that will have a great influence in Germany, intends to show that he is himself, according to a metaphor that one often finds in his writings, the very example of a successful graft.
