Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This 1831 publication introduces French language instruction to both sexes, with an emphasis on preparing students for extended study of other Romance languages. This resource was produced at a time when interest in European languages and cultures was flourishing in America, particularly due to the influence of prominent thinkers like Thomas Jefferson, who encouraged exposure to foreign languages. The author uses the method of presenting phrases for rote memorization, alongside notes on pronunciation and grammar, to illuminate not only the structure of the French language, but also its nuances. Embedded within the book's lessons are also notes on French culture, offering a window into the lives of French speakers. This volume is of significant historical value not simply as a snapshot of the state of language education in the early 19th century, but also as a testament to the ongoing interest Americans have had in embracing the French language and culture.
