Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contemporary French NovelistsIn our day a singularly false idea prevails in regard to boldness in art. A11 author who has at fronted the scruples of good taste, applauds him self on his audacity; he ought rather to reproach himself for awkwardness and a heavy hand. Art consists in knowing how to say everything so that it shall be accepted. It is thus that in painting a criminal passion, Feuillet has produced a picture which is not indeed chaste, which is even the re verse, but remains, after all, decent.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern French Literature The editor of the present treatise was unwilling, while at Paris, to lose an Opportunity of becoming acquainted with the more valuable portions of recent French literature. He was naturally desirous that the results of his conscientious studies might be od'ored to the public in such a way as would tend to remove prejudices with which the subject is unfortunately con useted in this country. But convinced that the latter purpose can be effected sooner, and perhaps better, by less ambitious la bors than those of authorship, he has, by the advice of his Father.

This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern French Literature in Translation During the heyday of Dadaism and Surrealism, Of Gide and of Proust, a young man in Paris was writing a book, about an adolescent love-affair, which was to create a stir in literary circles. Le diable an corps, by Raymond Radiguet, is not a great novel but it is a very remarkable one. The story it unfolds Is told with great simplicity which links it to the line Of French classical novels. Though it deals with a Subject which could easily have been treated salaciously, there is not one sensational note in it. Radiguet has depicted here a child's vision Of the world with all the vividness and directness of a child and also With a child's ruthless disregard for other people's feelings. Although it is the personal story which holds the attention of the reader, it is none the less worthwhile to note the author's attempt to give a picture of a particular moment in the history Of France.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some French Writers I found my way to the top of a winding staircase in the right wing of the pavillon, which stood, in the uptrending dignity of its white facade with dark green shutters symmetrically closed, at the back of a graveled courtyard whose gate open on the Rue de Monsieur, calmest among the smaller thoroughfares of the Quartier Saint-Germain. I was admitted into a minute ante-chamber, where the usual sensation of fresh dimness prevailed; was then ushered through a study, hardly less minute, but bright and cheerful in the warm whiteness of its walls and ceiling and rich various hues of many handsomely bound books; some hangings were now drawn aside, and in a subtly-decorated tiny retreat at the back I met Paul Bourget.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Modern French Writers a Study in Bergsonism What fate does the future hold in store for him! Only our grandchildren can answer that question. Still, it is permissible to foretell the future, or even, in the pragmatist's way, to make it. If we questioned Bergson himself on this point, he would tell us that his doctrine, like every product of the human brain, is a progressive thing, by no means perfect nor complete nor absolute. I am only a man; therefore you must not ask me for more than I can give. I have merely tried to get into close touch with that nature which always eludes us. For the riches of nature are inexhaustible things do not begin, nor do they end, nor are they as we see them, nor as we should wish them to be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Modern French Stories: A Chronological Anthology Mme. De Stael, however, had much to do with the liberal izing Of French letters. On the formal and aesthetic side Of literature her in uence was nugatory, but she reacted in a salutary manner against the cramping restrictions Of the purely classic viewpoint. She brought new, if borrowed, ideas to the novel; she broadened its outlook; and she awakened in the younger generation of writers a spirit Of freedom and intrepidity. It was the fecundity of her thought which enriched all the serious fiction writing which fol lowed her. Her Delphine and Corinne, though scarcely read today, played very much the same part in the devel Opment Of French fiction that the works of Richter and Goethe played in the development Of German fiction. The novel became a medium not for esthetic form but for esthetic ideas. In her the literature Of her country donned the garb of cosmopolitanism.

Download or read book Brieux and Contemporary French Society Classic Reprint written by William H. Scheifley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Brieux and Contemporary French Society HE purpose of this book is to explain to Ameri can readers the social themes treated by Eugene Brieux in his dramas and their relation to French society. I realize very well that such an undertaking is not easy; the difficulties in any attempt to estimate contemporary foreign litera ture are many and real. It is always hazardous to judge contemporary writers, and French literature is possibly even more baffling than that of most countries for a foreigner to criticize. At least Renan declared that the essential characteristic of the French genius was not to be well under stood abroad; and Henry Bidou has recently asserted that it is stupefying to read what a foreigner will write when discussing French litera ture. Yet the attempt to explain Brieux seems justified in view of the great demand for the few available books on him and on such contemporaries of his as Ibsen, Strindberg, and Shaw.
