Synopsis

Excerpt from Lettre à l'Académie Française

La littérature religieuse, disait il y a peu de temps un éminent critique', n'a point en France de nom qui lui soit plus cher que celui de Fénelon. On peut dire, plus généra lement encore, que notre littérature n'a pas de nom qui, à l'étranger ou parmi nous, soit entouré d'une sympathie plus respectueuse. Nommer Fénelon, n'est - ce pas rappeler en effet l'alliance la 'plus étroite et la plus aimable du génie, de la bonté et de la vertu?

François de Salignac de la motte-fénelon naquit, dans un château du Périgord, le 6 août 1651 au sein d'une fa mille ancienne et très - honorable, mais plus illustre que riche. Le marquis, son père, avait eu plusieurs enfants d'un pre mier mariage, et il était déjà sur l'âge lorsqu'il en contracta un second, dont il eut Fénelon. D'un tempérament délicat, celui - ci fut gardé auprès de ses parents; mais sa premiere éducation n'eut point à en souffrir. Grâce à la sollicitude de son père et de sa mère et aux soins d'un excellent précep teur, outre des principes solides de religion, il reçut tous les éléments d'une instruction classique distinguée, qu'il saisit avec une facilité d'esprit merveilleuse. A douze ans, il lisait, dans le texte original, les meilleurs auteurs latins et grecs; il goûtait leurs beautés et il écrivait sa propre langue de ma nière à faire pressentir ce qu'il devait être un jour.
