Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Madame Roland: A Study in Revolution Sometimes there seems to be nothing in life at all save the putting out of effort in some way or other, and we have to hold firmly to the belief that to act with enthusiasm and faith is the one condition Of acting greatly. Life, as far as we know it, is action, is passion, and if a man does not share in the action or the passion of his time, he runs the peril of being judged not to have lived at all. The woman about whom this book has been written is distinguished by a determination to Share in the passion of her day. She believed in the unexplainable worth and sure issue of effort, and she stood steadily on her course of unfaltering preparation for that public and political life to which she believed against all evidence that she might one day be called. For this people have called Madame Roland a prig, as if by slinging an idle epithet all interest in her could be for ever stilled. It does not matter what they call her, the fact remains that her life, priggish or no, unsympathetic or no, was a life of purpose and direction She was not particularly witty or humorous, -people of purpose seldom are, - but She had a fund of gaiety and good temper which endeared her to a great many of her contempo raries. There was no insipidity about her, she led her own life absolutely, Wherever She was stationed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Madame Roland It is not probable that much that is material will be added to What is' now known. To the labours of M. Claud Perroud, the latest editor of her Memoirs and letters, supplemented by copious notes and appendices, any fixture biographer must be largely indebted. His researches appear to have been practically exhaustive, and from the data he supplies, as well as from the testimony of contemporaries, it is possible to gain a clear View Of the woman she was - generous, courageous, warm-hearted, arrogant, and self-occupied. Of that woman, her great gifts and powers, her faults and her weaknesses, and the charm she exercised over those brought into contact with her, I have here endeavoured to give a picture, adding only so much of the history of her times as may be necessary to throw her figure into relief and to define the place she filled with regard to it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Madame De Stael and of Madame Roland The Object of the Ladies' Family Library is to fur nish a series of volumes, which will suit the taste, and interest the feelings of women. If this Object be not attained, it certainly will not be for want of abundant materials. Biography is so universally fascinating, that it was very naturally the first subject presented to my mind; and I believe I am not mistaken in supposing that the Lives of Madame de Sta'el and Madame Roland will prove unusually attractive, both on account of their own great qualities, and the very exciting historical events with which they are so intimately connected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Madame Roland The history of Madame Roland embraces the most interesting events of the French Revolution, that most instructive tragedy which time has yet enacted. There is, perhaps, contained in the memoirs of no other woman so much to invigorate the mind with the desire for high intellectual culture, and so much to animate the spirit heroically to meet all the ills of this eventful life. Notwithstanding her experience of the heaviest temporal calamities, she found, in the opulence of her own intellectual treasures, an unfailing resource. These inward joys peopled her solitude with society, and dispelled even from the dungeon its gloom. I know not where to look for a career more full of suggestive thought.

Download or read book Madame Roland written by Ida M. Tarbell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Madame Roland: A Biographical Study Some eight years ago I undertook a study of the women of the French Revolution, my object being merely to satisfy myself as to the value of their public services in that period. In the course of my studies I became particularly interested in Madame Roland, and when five years ago I found myself in Paris for an extended period, I decided to use my leisure in making a more careful investigation of her life and times than I had been able to do in America. The result of that study is condensed in this volume. Much of the material used in preparing the book is new to the public. The chapter on Mademoiselle Phlipon's relations with M. Roland and of their marriage has been written from unpublished letters, and presents a very different view of that affair from that which her biographers have hitherto given, and from that which she herself gives in her Memoirs. The story of her seeking a title with its privileges in Paris in 1784 has never before been told, the letters in which the details of her search are given never having been published.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Josephine, Vol. 20 Josephine, the beautiful creole who afterward became Empress of France, like Maria Antoi nette and Madam Roland, was drawn into the vortex of the French Revolution, but, more fortunate than they, escaped the guillotine, though standing in its Sinister shadow. She saw the closing of the gruesome tragedy and the rise of the young Corsican, Bonaparte. She Shared his meteoric career; saw him be come the creator of kings, with the proudest monarchs of Europe constrained to do his bidding. His own hands placed the diadem of an empress upon her brow. Then, with an energy which the world has never seen surpassed, he bent to the purpose of his soul - to make France the most illustrious nation earth had ever seen. For this he trampled upon the strongest ties of affection, and Josephine, broken-hearted, affixed her signature to the deed which sundered her dearest hopes and fondest aspirations. She has been called the Star of Napoleon for the lustre she added to his brilliancy. France reveres her as a beneficent angel of goodness.
