Beyond Heine’s work, Nerval dialogues with Schiller: naivety is not an objective quality; it responds to the dream of a “sentimental” subject, nostalgic about its own lost unity. Seeking to recover this, Nerval identifies with a plurality of contradictory characters drawn from the Livre des chants. Through this mask, as unfathomable as it is pathetic, a romantic lyricism is deployed, as much a posture as it is nature.
