Abstract
The article deals with the influence of German romanticism on the works of the prominent French mass- literature author of the beginning of the 20th century - Gaston Leroux. His novelistic diptych “La Poupée sanglante” (“A Bloody Doll”, 1923) is based on a famous criminal case of Henri Landru and, at the same time, is very close in its plot to the renowned E.Th.A. Hoffmann novel “Der Sandmann” (“The Sandman”, 1816). The lengthy quote from Heinrich Heine's book “Zur Geschichte der Religion und Philosophie in Deutschland” (“On the History of Religion and Philosophy in Germany”, 1835) has much weight in the diptych. Here, just like in other works of Leroux, quotations and allusions from prose and poetry of other authors are being rethought, sometimes in quite an ironic way.
