Synopsis
Excerpt from French Review Exercises for Advanced Pupils
These exercises are intended for college students who have had two or more years of French, usually at school. The fatal idea, so current among school children and college students, that French can be learned without any work is doubtless part of the prevalent notion that the manifest destiny of France is to provide more or less innocent amusement to mankind, and the pathetic endeavor of many teachers to make that amusement wholly innocent has often been a source of grim satisfaction to the author. That to appreciate French litera ture the language must be mastered, and that to master it hard and continued effort is essential, is the lesson that needs to be driven home. The purpose of these exercises is to compel the student to systematize his knowledge, by grouping linguistic facts together under appropriate headings, so that a French sentence may be to him a coordinate whole and not a jumble of words whose meaning is to be guessed at. This' is the object of the many grammar references. The sentences were written in French, and then done into English as literal as seemed consistent with intelligibility. They form a con nected narrative, and it is hoped they will prove less wearisome to the student than detached grammatical examples.
