J'étais sur une éminence d'où l'on ne découvrait que la forèt sauvage 'et, sombre s'éten dant de tous côtés à perte de vue, et la route rougeâtre qui la coupait en droite ligne jusqu'à ce qu'on la perdit de vue aux deux extrémités, der riere une é1ninence.-je ne connais rien de compara ble a ce tableau si ce n'est un Salvator - Rosa que j'eus un jour occasion de voir. Bientôt la diligence me rejoignit, et nous fîmes quatorze milles avant de gagner l'endroit où nous devions déjeûner. Arrivés à cet endroit, nous mourions de faim, mais on ne put nous rien donner; il ne restait pas une miette du déjeûner de la maison, qui était achevé depuis longtemps. Nous continuâmes notre route jusqu'à une heure apres midi, et nous arrètâmes devant une maison particulière. Onflavait encore dîné dans cette maison; mais, j'ai hâte de le dire, nous n'en fîmes pas moins un repas confortable, qui nous fut servi par les soins de la maîtresse du logis, et qu'elle ne nous fit payer qu'un quart de dollar par tète. Le souvenir de cette dame est gravé dans notre me moire à tous, comme celui d'une hôtesse fort hospita lière.'

Download or read book America in the French Imaginary 1789 1914 written by Diana R. Hallman and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the American Revolution, French observers often viewed the United States as a laboratory for the forging of new practices of liberté and égalité, in affinity with and divergence from France's own Revolutionary ideals and experiences. The volume examines French views through musical/theatrical portrayals of the American Revolution and Republic, soundscapes of the Statue of Liberty, and homages to the glorified figures of Washington, Franklin and Lafayette. Essays investigate paradoxical depictions of slavery in the United States and French Caribbean colonies of 'Amérique'. French critiques of American music and musicians, including the reception of Americanized or Creolized adaptations of European art traditions as well as American popular music and dance, are also presented. The subject of race features prominently in French interpretations of American music and identity. These interpretations see French constructions of the Indigenous American and African American "exotic" that intersect with tropes of noble, pastoral savagery, menacing barbarism, and the "civilizing" potency of French culture. The French reinterpretation of African American music and dance reveals both a revulsion of Black alterity and an attraction to the expressive freedom, and even subversiveness, of these "foreign" forms of music and dance. Contributions include essays by music, dance, theatre and opera scholars, and the volume will be essential reading for students and scholars of these disciplines.

Download or read book Jacques Pierre Brissot in America and France 1788 1793 written by Bette W. Oliver and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines a decisive five-year period in the life of Jacques Pierre Brissot, one of the influential leaders of the French Revolution. An idealistic, somewhat naive journalist who became a member of the national assembly, Brissot championed the new American republic as an example for the French revolutionary government to follow. This book is not intended to serve as a biography of the Girondin leader, but rather to present an examination of his life between 1788, when he visited the United States, and 1793, when he was executed. As such, the narrative necessarily focuses on the events of the revolution as the ever-present background to Brissot's thoughts and actions. Both as a journalist and as a legislator, Brissot was consumed by the tumultuous events of the period under review. The book is based primarily on the publications, correspondence, and memoirs of Brissot, as well as materials from the Bibliotheque Nationale, the Archives Nationales, and relevant secondary sources. It also includes comparisons between Brissot's observations of America in 1788, published in 1791 as "Nouveau Voyage dans les Etats-Unis de l'Amerique Septentrionale, 1788," and those of his countryman Alexis de Tocqueville in his widely read "Democracy in America," which described his visit in 1831 and was published in 1835.
