Synopsis
Excerpt from Modern French Readings
HE leading object of this volume is to furnish the student with progressive materials for becoming acquainted with the current language of France, under the influences that are giving it a new phase of development. To that end the selections have been made with reference to style and vocabulary, rather than to the history of the literature, so as to enable the reader to acquire experience in the popular, social, every-day terms and idioms that characterize the writings of the French to - day.
Another end in view, though somewhat more local in its origin, is to facilitate a wider range of reading to our own students than was practicable where - a large number of foreign and expensive volumes were required, of which only a limited portion of each was available. The present excerpts are intended to embrace a year's study, beginning with what is easy, and gradually advancing to the more difficult styles of Daudet and Victor Hugo. It is charitably believed, however, that what is desirable for our young gentlemen here, will be acceptable to other schools of learning, and in this confidence the book has been prepared.
