The polemical zeal guiding the works of Jules Barbey d’Aurevilly (1808-1889) and Leon Bloy (1846-1917) brought these two writer-journalists together as friends in Paris in 1867. They elevated the use of verbal violence to both an art form and a moral stance, grounded in apologetic and sacred aspirations.
