Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scenes of Parisian Life, Vol. 2: Splendors and Miseries Bibi Lupin, himself an ex-convict, had been, at the galleys, the companion of Jacques Collin, but had since become his personal enemy. His hatred traced its source to quarrels from which Jacques Collin had always come forth victorious, and to the supremacy which Trompe-la - Mort had exercised over his companions. Lastly, for ten years Jacques Collin had been the guardian of returned convicts, their chief, their adviser in Paris, their depositary, and consequently the deadly antagonist of Bibi Lupin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scenes of Parisian Life, Vol. 3: Cousin Bette It is a literary caprice which one may gratify once in a way, especially in a work wherein one seeks to portray all the forms in which thought may be clothed. Most disputes among men, are due to the fact that there are people, learned and ignorant alike, so con stituted that they can see but one aspect of a fact or an idea, and invariably claim that the one they have seen is the only true, the only sound one. So it was that the Holy Book prophetically announced God will give the world over to dissension. I confess that that single passage of Scripture should lead the Holy See to bestow upon you the govern ment of the two Chambers, in obedience to the sen tence expounded in 1814, by the ordinance of Louis XVIII.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scenes of Parisian Life, Vol. 6: History of the Thirteen; Ferragus; La Duchesse De Langeais Since the death of Napoleon, an accident con cerning which the author should still preserve silence, has dissolved the bonds of this life, as secret and curious, as the darkest of the romances of Mrs. Radcliffe. The permission, sufficiently remarkable in itself, to relate, in his own manner, some of the adventures of these men, always with respect for certain proprieties, has only recently been given him by one of these anonymous heroes to whom all branches of society were secretly sub ject, and in whom the author believes himself to have discovered a vague desire for celebrity. This man, in appearance still young, with light hair and blue eyes, whose voice, soft and clear, seemed to reveal a feminine soul, was pale of com plexion and mysterious in his manners; he con versed affably, pretended to be only forty years of age, and might have been a member of the highest class of society. The name which he had assumed appeared to be a fictitious one; in the gay world his person was unknown. Who is he? No one knows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Imperial Paris: Including New Scenes for Old Visitors Some of the papers contained in this book have already appeared in Household Words; but there are many which are now published for the first time. Two or three of these original chapters, form part of a work I had once projected, on the Poor of Paris, but which other avocations compelled me to abandon. They may, however, stimulate some inquirer who has the leisure to finish a task that could not fail to interest the English public. Chifi'ons and Cliifi'oniers; the Four Seasons in Prose; the French Waiter' s Story; Departed this Life in Paris; street-note and Paris under the Bees, are original chapters, in which the reader will find, if I am not mistaken, views of Parisian activity with which no book has yet made him acquainted. In the paper entitled The English Painted by the French, I have woven into one narrative, a series of quotations from various French writers, who have written recently on En g land. It presents, at a glance, a series of whimsical. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American in Paris, During the Summer Picture of Parisian Life, in the Court, the Salons, and the Family Circle: Its Sports, Amusements, and Jules The English translator, in presenting another volume of the American in Paris to the public, has but a slight task imposed, in writing a preface. That of the French translator will fully explain the circumstances, which have enabled the publishers to avail themselves of the hint given by two or three reviews last year, that there were objects of interest, in and near the French capital, necessarily left undescribed, which would amply suffice to fill another volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paris of the Parisians The purpose of these sketches is not political nor yet didactic. No charge is laid upon me to teach the French nation its duties, to reprove it for its follies. Nor yet is it my design to hold up Paris of the Parisians as an example of naughtiness, nor even of virtue, to English readers. A student of human life still in my humanities, my purpose is purely interpretative. I would endeavour to trans late into English some Paris scenes, in such a way as to give a true impression of the movement, personages, sounds, colours, and atmosphere per vaded With joy of living which belongs to them. These impressions Which I have myself received, and now desire to communicate, are not the result of a general survey of Paris taken from some lofty summit. I have not looked down upon the capital of F rance from the top of the Eiffel Tower; nor yet from the terrace of the Sacre Coeur; nor yet from the balcony among the chimeres of Notre.
