Excerpt from Selections From Standard French Authors: A Reader For First And Second Year Students; With Vocabulary, Notes, And Brief Biographical Sketches

An attempt has also been made, in the biographical and literary notes which accompany the selections, to call atten tion to a few of the most essential facts regarding each author cited. While these notes are necessarily brief, it is hoped that they may serve the purpose of interesting the student in the men whose works he is reading. Thus this book of F rench selections may prove useful introduction to the study of F rench as a literature, as well as to French as a language.
