Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Madame Roland But the actual parents were far from suspecting the native land of the little traveller that was born to them. They had probably never heard of Aristides the Just and Brutus the Tyrannicide. Gatien Phlipon, a chaser and worker in enamel, carried on a pretty thriving business for this was the time when elaborately engraved watches, snuff-boxes, and shoe-buckles were so much sought after, the designs often being works of art in their way. M. Phlipon employed several apprentices, and was successful as long as be ap plied himself steadily to his calling. A restless wish to make money and rise in the world was, however, attended with the opposite results. Constantly engaged in speculation, such as buying diamonds to resell at a profit, - he neg lected his business only to lose money in that as also in his other ventures. He was tall and good-looking, proud of his personal advantages, and in every way a gay, vain, quick-witted, and pleasure-loving Parisian.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Madame Roland Many characters of unusual grandeur were developed by the French Revolution. Among them all, there are few more illustrious, or more worthy of notice, than that of Madame Roland. The eventful story of her life con tains much to inspire the mind with admiration and with enthusiasm, and to stimulate one to live worthily of those capabilities with which every human heart is endowed. NO person can read the record of her - lofty spirit and of her heroic acts without a higher appreciation of woman's power, and of the mighty influence one may Wleld, who combines the charms of a noble and highly-cultivated mind with the fas cinations of female delicacy and loveliness. TO understand the secret of the almost miraculous influence She exerted, it is necessary to trace her career, with some degree of minuteness.

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.

Download or read book Madame Roland written by Una Birch Pope-Hennessy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 612 pages. 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.

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.

Download or read book Anne Jos phe written by William Wilczak and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-05-27 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anne-Josèphe: A Stage Play brings to life the historic Anne-Josèphe Théroigne de Méricourt, a commonly overlooked revolutionary who fought for liberty and equality for women during the French Revolution. Bold and passionate about effecting change, Anne-Josèphe dons men’s clothes, arms herself, and trains French women as Amazones. She encounters many key players in the French Revolution – such as Abbé Sieyès, Marquis de Condorcet, Madame Roland, Claire Lacombe, and Marat – yet she also draws the attention of a vicious and chauvinistic press. As blood spills between rival factions over the governance and future of France, Anne-Josèphe finds her own freedom – and mental health – slipping away. Anne-Josèphe is an epic tragedy written with an existential lens and includes an introduction to Existentialism to attune readers to this philosophy. Historical and dramatic, reasoned and emotional, this play represents our past, present, and possibly our future if we don’t face our existing struggles and overall spiritlessness in our age.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fisheries and Fishery Industries of the United States It is now nearly four hundred years Since these grounds were first fished upon by Europeans, and their resources are still unfailing; but the fishing interests have been mainly transferred to the New World, France alone of European countries having continued to send fishing vessels across the Atlantic down to 1880. Since then, however, the Portuguese have begun to exhibit some activity in connection with the cod fishery of the Grand Bank, and in the Spring and sum mer of 1885 bought several New England fishing schooners and fitted out others from home ports. Their voyages proving generally successful, they have added more vessels to their fishing fleet during the latter part of this year, and it is quite possible that, in the course of a few seasons.
