Excerpt from A Bachelor's Establishment, And, Honorine We conclude, therefore, that La Rabouilleuse is a very powerful novel worthy of Balzac at his best. Like Cousine Bette, however, it gives occasion for the criticism that our author succeeds best with his bad characters. Mme. Bridau, Mme. Hochon, who is in some respects a second Mme. Grandet, and Joseph, in spite of his goodness and genius, do not furnish the element of nobility that is needed to counter act the double - dyed villainy of Philippe, the coarse brutality of Flore and her paramour, the doting idiocy of old Rouget, the vile cynicism of his father, the Doctor, and the avarice of M. Hochon. The Parisian scenes are on the whole sordid: those at Issoudun are of absorbing interest, in the main, but do not leave one the better for having witnessed them. In deed the horse-play of the Chevaliers almost verges on the contemptible. In other words, Balzac's novel has its Iago but lacks its Desdemona. Still sheer power is in itself so wonder ful as to be almost if not altogether admirable, and sheer power La Rabouilleuse displays in a most marked degree. Sensitive readers will perhaps not care greatly for it, but then such readers could never be brought to appreciate Balzac in his entirety.

This book explores the policy objectives underlying the gift of this Order, to sixty men, on January 1 1403. Drawing primarily on Philip's household accounts, it undertakes complementary iconographical and prosopographical analyses (of the Order insignia's form, materials, design and motto; and of distinguishing common features among its recipients), refined by reference to his policy concerns around the occasion of its bestowal, to test seven hypotheses. The evidence from the analyses enables six of these (that it was purely decorative; a courtly conceit; crusade-related; a military chivalric order; a livery badge; or a military alliance) progressively to be discarded, pointing strongly to the seventh, that the Order was a specific policy alliance, designed in fashionable form, to obscure its politically sensitive purpose. The nature of that purpose then permits a revision of Philip's role in history, particularly in relation to the creation of an independent Burgundian state, and the use of a co-ordinated propaganda campaign of slogan, badge, and supporting literature, to legitimise and popularise his plans. The analytical approach also offers insights into the significance of decorative, material gift-giving; the identification of networks; Christine de Pisan's earlier political writings, and the origins of the Order of the Golden Fleece. Carol Chattaway is Honorary Research Assistant at the Royal College of Art and University College, London University. She researches on the political significance of material objects at the Burgundian Court, in the later middle ages.

Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand (1760–1834) regarded the Précis of the Lectures on Architecture (1802–5) and its companion volume, the Graphic Portion (1821), as both a basic course for future civil engineers and a treatise. Focusing the practice of architecture on utilitarian and economic values, he assailed the rationale behind classical architectural training: beauty, proportionality, and symbolism. His formal systematization of plans, elevations, and sections transformed architectural design into a selective modular typology in which symmetry and simple geometrical forms prevailed. His emphasis on pragmatic values, to the exclusion of metaphysical concerns, represented architecture as a closed system that subjected its own formal language to logical processes. Now published in English for the first time, the Précis and the Graphic Portion are classics of architectural education.
