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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Parisians, Vol. 2 of 2 ON waking some morning, have you ever felt, reader, as if a change for the brighter in the world, without and within you, had suddenly come to pass - some new glory has been given to the sunshine, some fresh balm to the air - you feel younger, and happier, and lighter, in the very beat of your heart - you almost fancy you hear the chime of some spiri tual music far off, as if in the deeps of heaven? You are not at first conscious how, or wherefore, this change has been brought about. Is it the effect of a dream in the gone sleep, that has made this morning so different from morn ings that have dawned before? And while vaguely asking yourself that question, you become aware that the cause is no mere illusion, that it has its substance in words spoken by living lips, in things that belong to the work-day world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Parisians, Vol. 1 of 2 One last word to those who will miss from these pages the connecting and completing touches of the master's hand. It may be hoped that such a disadvantage, though irreparable, is somewhat mitigated by the essential char acter of the work itself. The aesthetic merit of this kind of novel is in the vivacity of a general effect produced by large, swift strokes of character; and in such strokes, if they be by a great artist, force and freedom of style must still be apparent, even when they are left rough and uh finished. Nor can any lack of final verbal correction much diminish the intellectual value which many of the more thoughtful passages of the present work derive from a long, keen, and practical study of political phenomena, guided by personal experience of public life, and enlight ened by a large, instinctive knowledge of the human heart.

The compliment would be magnificent for her, but rather whimsical. Nevertheless, she' is more masculine (using the word in a stalwart sense) than most of the Frenchmen you meet in Paris. I scarcely know a Parisian who is equipped with such a virile bearing. She is an ao tive, brusque, business person, resolute, accustomed to giving and taking hard blows, and to deciding daily a score of im portant questions on the spur of the mo ment. She was born to command, and carries on, with unusual administrative ability, two or three secular enterprises. Among them is the Nouvelle Revue.

Considering that it is a woman who writes to you, I think you will confess that you have no reason to complain of having been overwhelmed with the fashions of Paris: perhaps, on the contrary, you may feel rather disposed to grumble because all I have hitherto said on the fertile subject of dress has been almost wholly devoted to the historic and fanciful costume of the republicans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parisian Portraits My wanderings had landed me in Paris early in the spring of 1869, in the centre of the rush and roar of an Empire about to crumble away. I had arrived at the borders of a social maelstrom without knowing the meaning of its movement and mystery. Unconsciously France was preparing for war and revolution. Destiny went with a whirl, and no one was idle. I was ignorant because of my youth; the Parisians were ignorant because of their blindness. As delirium increases with fever so pleasure increases with prosperity; and the Parisians, like so many spiders in a garden of roses, were busy weaving a web that would hold them prisoners when the flies were dead and the roses withered.

Download or read book Imperial Paris written by W. Blanchard Jerrold and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08 with total page 290 pages. 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.

Once I had a little friend, a very little friend - she was only thirteen but do not imagine evil I was the same age myself. She went to the communal school in one of the faubourgs of Paris, and one day she had to write a com position on Spring. She gave it me to read, and to this very day I can see her English writing, so awkward and childish. This is the way she had started It is Spring, so all the tables begin coming out of the doors of the cafes.
