Pages : 380
Book Description
Excerpt from Paris and Its Historical Scenes, Vol. 2 of 2: The Revolution of 1830 Of the Historical Scenes of which Paris has been the theatre, none are so extraordinary, or calculated to awaken so deep an interest, as those by which that city has been illustrated in our own day. The last week of July, 1830 - deservedly styled La grande Semaine - may probably vie, for the magnitude of the movements which formed its rapid drama, with any period of the same brevity in the annals of the modern world. For within this little space we have not only the mighty result of a throne overturned, and a nation revolutionized, but the beginning of that Revolution, a swell as its consummation, - not merely the crash of the downfall following the last of many successive shocks (an incident sufficient of itself to make a memorable epoch), but the whole process of the assault as well as the catastrophe of the overthrow.

Book Description
Excerpt from Paris in Its Splendour, Vol. 1 of 2 A capital is often described as the heart or brain of a country, and the metaphor in the case of Paris conveys more truth than such epigrams usually express. But Paris is also more emphatically than some other Euro pean capitals its countenance as well. Paris, like Lon don and Rome, is not only the political, commercial, social, and intellectual centre of France, but it is an epitome and reflection of the national life and an illus tration of the past history. In it, observes Mr. H. D. Trail], the genius and the temperament of the people Who built it and Who inhabit it are almost always re flected; it bears in many cases the indelible marks of their historic experiences and the unbroken chronicle of their growth; it is the enduring monument of their labours and achievements; here and there it may reveal to us, as by the lines of care on the faces of the aged, the sombre vestiges of their calamities and crimes.

Category : History

Pages : 584
Book Description
Excerpt from History of the French Revolution of 1789, Vol. 1 Tms work, which is in course of publication in Paris, is now for the first time offered to the public in the English language. It will be completed in ten original volumes, the first two of which are embraced in this. Its author has recently acquired for himself a world-wide rep ata tion as a leading and active member of the Provisional Government of France. He had been previously known in the literary world by his France under Louis Philippe, which had procured for him the reputation of an able and brilliant writer, an original thinker, and a powerful delineator. These traits will be found conspicuous in the present volume, which contains the causes that, in his opinion, led from afar to the great French Revolution of 1789, and the opening scenes of that mighty drama. It has been the object of the translator to present the author's ideas, and more especially in the theoretical and philosophical parts of the work, in, as nearly as possible, his own language. Should there therefore be found passages to which criticism may except as being too literal, this must be his apology therefor.
