Henri Beyle (nacido Marie-Henri Beyle; Grenoble, 23 de enero de 1783-París, 23 de marzo de 1842), conocido por su nombre de pluma Stendhal, fue un escritor francés. Valorado por su agudo análisis de la psicología de sus personajes y por la concisión de su estilo, está considerado como uno de los primeros y más importantes representantes literarios del realismo. Sus novelas más conocidas son Rojo y negro (1830) y La cartuja de Parma (1839). Durante la vida de Stendhal, su reputación se basó principalmente en sus libros sobre arte y turismo (término que contribuyó a introducir en Francia), así como en sus escritos políticos y su ingenio en las conversaciones.
