Extrait: ...en t'ecrivant. J'ai trouve, en repassant a Bruxelles, le chef d'escadron Jacquin, celui qui m'y avait recu, lorsque pour la premiere fois j'ai fait mon debut a la gamelle du regiment. Il m'a retenu a dejeuner et a diner, et m'a appris que le regiment avait beaucoup souffert dans les dernieres affaires. Tu as vu que nous avions fait une reculade a notre armee d'observation. Nos avant-postes n'ont point encore remue. Ils sont a Siegbourg, Kaiserwert, Elberfeld, sur une ligne a dix lieues plus loin que le Rhin. Sur ce point-la nous sommes inattaquables, ayant toutes les redoutes du Rhin, le fort d'Ehrenbreitstein, et tant d'autres positions inexpugnables. Aussi l'empereur dirige-t-il ses attaques sur Schaffhouse et Bale. Il ne lui serait pas difficile de penetrer par la; mais ils ont une tactique si bete qu'ils ne sauront pas profiter de leurs avantages. Ils ne savent pas, comme nous, faire des trouees, ils ne marchent jamais que sur une grande ligne flasque. Le quartier general de l'armee d'observation va etre a present a Cologne, ce qui rendra cette Yille bien vivante. Ne sois point inquiete de moi, ma bonne mere; nous sommes les chanoines de l'armee. Adieu, je t'embrasse de toute mon ame. J'aurais bien besoin de ma bonne dans mes etapes pour me bassiner mon lit. Mais je n'aurais pas besoin des discours de Deschartres pour m'endormir. La fatigue y supplee. LETTRE XXXV Cologne, le 4 floreal. Enfin, ma bonne mere, j'ai revu les murs et les remparts de Cologne. Ce n'est pas sans peine, val...

Download or read book Ovid in French written by Helena Taylor and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays examines the ways Ovid's diverse œuvre has been translated, rewritten, adapted, and responded to by a range of French and Francophone women from the Renaissance to the present. It aims to reveal lesser-known voices in Ovidian reception studies, and to offer a wider historical perspective on the complex question of Ovid and gender. Ranging from Renaissance poetry to contemporary creative-criticism, it charts an understudied strand of reception studies, emphasizing how a longer view allows us to explore and challenge the notion of a female tradition of Ovidian reception. The range of genres analysed here—poetry, verse and prose translation, theatre, epistolary fiction, autofiction, autobiography, film, creative critique, and novels—also reflect the diversity of the Ovidian texts in reception from the Heroides to the Metamorphoses, from the Amores to the Ars Amatoria, from the Tristia to the Fasti. The study brings an array of critical approaches to bear on well-known authors such as George Sand, Julia Kristeva, and Marguerite Yourcenar, as well as less-known figures, from contemporary writer Linda Lê to the early modern Catherine and Madeline Des Roches, exploring exile, identity, queerness, displacement, voice, expectations of modesty, the poetics of translation, and the problems posed by Ovid's erotized violence, to name just some of the volume's rich themes. The epilogue by translator and novelist Marie Cosnay points towards new eco-critical and creative directions in Ovidian scholarship and reception. Students and scholars of French Studies, Classics, Comparative Literature and Translation Studies will find much to interest them in this diverse collection of essays.

Download or read book Vision in the Novels of George Sand written by Manon Mathias and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nineteenth-century novelist, George Sand, is most famous today for her tumultuous love life and trouser-wearing days in Paris, but she achieved major commercial and critical success in her day and has gradually made her way back into the literary canon. Mainly known for her pastoral tales and allegedly simplistic idealism, Sand in fact produced around ninety novels which experiment with a wide range of themes, forms and aesthetic models. This book offers thefirst study of vision in Sand's works. It argues that, rather than rejecting reality in favour of the ideal, Sand integrates physical observation with internal forms of seeing such as the imaginationand visionary insights. The study maintains that Sand's understanding of vision provides the basis for her distinctive style and challenges conventional categorisations of the novel in this period.

Book excerpt: Le jeune prince Karol de Roswald venait de perdre sa mère lorsqu'il fit connaissance avec la Floriani. Il était plongé encore dans une tristesse profonde, et rien ne pouvait le distraire. La princesse de Roswald avait été pour lui une mère tendre et parfaite. Elle avait prodigué à son enfance débile et souffreteuse les soins les plus assidus et le dévouement le plus entier. Élevé sous les yeux de cette digne et noble femme, le jeune homme n'avait eu qu'une passion réelle dans toute sa vie: l'amour filial. Cet amour réciproque du fils et de la mère les avait rendus exclusifs, et peut-être un peu trop absolus dans leur manière de voir et de sentir. La princesse était d'un esprit supérieur et d'une grande instruction, il est vrai; son entretien et ses enseignements semblaient pouvoir tenir lieu de tout au jeune Karol. La frêle santé de celui-ci s'était opposée à ces études classiques, pénibles, sèchement tenaces, qui ne valent pas toujours par elles-mêmes les leçons d'une mère éclairée, mais qui ont cet avantage indispensable de nous apprendre à travailler, parce qu'elles sont comme la clef de la science de la vie. La princesse de Roswald ayant écarté les pédagogues et les livres, par ordonnance des médecins, s'était attachée à former l'esprit et le cœur de son fils, par sa conversation, par ses récits, par une sorte d'insufflation de son être moral, que le jeune homme avait aspirée avec délices. Il était donc arrivé à savoir beaucoup sans avoir rien appris. Mais rien ne remplace l'expérience; et le soufflet que, dans mon enfance, on donnait encore aux marmots pour leur graver dans la mémoire le souvenir d'une grande émotion, d'un fait historique, d'un crime célèbre, ou de tout autreexemple à suivre ou à éviter, n'était pas chose si niaise que cela nous parait aujourd'hui. Nous ne donnons plus ce soufflet à nos enfants; mais ils vont le chercher ailleurs, et la lourde main de l'expérience l'applique plus rudement que ne ferait la nôtre. Le jeune Karol de Roswald connut donc le monde et la vie de bonne heure, de trop bonne heure peut-être, mais par la théorie et non par la pratique. Dans le louable dessein d'élever son âme, sa mère ne laissa approcher de lui que des personnes distinguées, dont les préceptes et l'exemple devaient lui être salutaires. Il sut bien que dehors il y avait des méchants et des fous, mais il n'apprit qu'à les éviter, nullement à les connaître. On lui enseigna bien à secourir les malheureux; les portes du palais où s'écoula son enfance étaient toujours ouvertes aux nécessiteux; mais, tout en les assistant, il s'habitua à mépriser la cause de leur détresse et à regarder cette plaie comme irrémédiable dans l'humanité. Le désordre, la paresse, l'ignorance ou le manque de jugement, sources fatales d'égarement et de misère, lui parurent, avec raison, incurables chez les individus. On ne lui apprit point à croire que les masses doivent et peuvent insensiblement s'en affranchir, et qu'en prenant l'humanité corps à corps, en discutant avec elle, en la gourmandent, et la caressant tour à tour, comme un enfant qu'on aime, en lui pardonnant beaucoup de rechutes pour en obtenir quelques progrès, on fait plus pour elle qu'en jetant à ses membres perclus ou gangrenés le secours restreint de la compassion.
Download or read book Novel Stages written by Pratima Prasad and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in Novel Stages examine the myriad intersections between drama and the novel in nineteenth-century France, a period when the two genres were in constant engagement with one another. The collection is unified by common intellectual concerns: the inscription of theatrical esthetics within the novel; the common practice among nineteenth-century novelists of adapting their works for the stage; and the novel's engagement with popular forms of theater. The essays provide insight into a specific aspect of the relationship between the theater and the novel in the nineteenth century. Their distinct perspectives form an overview of the literary landscape of nineteenth-century France, and demonstrate many ways in which all major nineteenth-century French novelists, including Hugo, Flaubert, Sand, and Zola, participated in the theatrical culture of their century.

Download or read book From the Salon to the Schoolroom written by Rebecca Rogers and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How a nation educates its children tells us much about the values of its people. From the Salon to the Schoolroom examines the emerging secondary school system for girls in nineteenth-century France and uncovers how that system contributed to the fashioning of the French bourgeois woman. Rebecca Rogers explores the variety of schools--religious and lay--that existed for girls and paints portraits of the women who ran them and the girls who attended them. Drawing upon a wide array of public and private sources--school programs, prescriptive literature, inspection reports, diaries, and letters--she reveals the complexity of the female educational experience as the schoolroom gradually replaced the salon as the site of French women's special source of influence. From the Salon to the Schoolroom also shows how France as part of its civilizing mission transplanted its educational vision to other settings: the colonies in Africa as well as throughout the Western world, including England and the United States. Historians are aware of the widespread ramifications of Jesuit education, but Rogers shows how French education for girls played into the cross-cultural interactions of modern society, producing an image of the Frenchwoman that continues to tantalize and fascinate the Western world today.
