The following book revolves around the history of Rouen, a city on the River Seine in northern France. It is the prefecture of the region of Normandy and the department of Seine-Maritime. It was formerly one of the largest and most prosperous cities of medieval Europe. Rouen was the seat of the Exchequer of Normandy during the Middle Ages. It was one of the capitals of the Anglo-Norman dynasties, which ruled both England and large parts of modern France from the 11th to the 15th centuries. From the 13th century onwards, the city experienced a remarkable economic boom, thanks in particular to the development of textile factories and river trade. Claimed by both the French and the English during the Hundred Years' War, it was on its soil that Joan of Arc was tried and burned alive.

Excerpt from book: ancient exchange. On the lower extremity of the obelisk, we remark a woman seated, representing Commerce. The figure of Time points to the solar line. The medaillon of Louis XV, which had been taken away in 1792, was replaced in 1815. This monument is by Paul Slolds, a statuary of the last century. . Saint- Jflaclou. In the year 1228, this parish was situated without the walls of the town. In that year, Geoffroy deCapreville granted a portion of ground belonging to himself, and s] nated in the parish of Saint-Maclou, without the town. At that time the church of Saint-Maclou was only a chapel, the construction of vhich'was not very remarkable. About the middle of the xvth century, the erection of the present edifice was commenced. In the year 1511, the works were far advanced, the platform which was to support the steeple having been already built. This church was formerly called the fille ainee de Mgr. I'archeveque. The sacred oils were kept in this church, and were distributed to the different parishes of the diocdse. This privilege was shown by two vases supported on two iron barson each side of the cross which surmounted the great porch. In the general processions, the cross of Saint-Maclou took precedence of all others, and led the procession. The church is forty six metres twelve centimetres in length, by twenty four metres sixty seven centimetres in breadth, taking in the aisles. Its height, from the pavement of the nave to the extremity of the ancient steeple, was about seventy eight metres. This handsome steeple, in the form of a cone, rose to a height of thirty seven metres thirty four centimetres above the lantern; one could ascend to the cross, by the exterior of it, without a ladder. In 1705, it was shaken by a hurricane; thirty years later, it beca...

Rouen, It's History and Monuments A Guide to Strangers by Theodore Licquet Cæsar, in his Commentaries does not speak of Rouen; Pomponius Mela, does not mention it in his Geography; Ptolemy is the first author who has noticed it. This observation alone will shew the absurdity of the numerous etymologies assigned to its name of Rothomagus, of which we have made Rouen. The least unlikely are those which have been taken from the primitive language of the country; but, even then we can only form conjectures more or less vague, as, in deriving Rothomagus from two celtic words, some have considered that this name signifies a great town; others, a town on the bank of a river; while others again a town where duties were paid.

Excerpt from The Story of Rouen HE story of a town must differ from the history of a nation in that it is concerned not with large issues but with familiar and domestic details. A nation has no individuality. No single phrase can fairly sum up the characteristics of a people. But a town is like one face picked out of a crowd, a face that shows not merely the experience of our human span, but the traces of centuries that go backward into unrecorded time. In all this slow development a character that is individual and inseparable is gradually formed. That character never fades. It is to be found first in the geographical laws of permanent or slowly changed surroundings, and secondly in the outward aspect of the dwellings built by man, for his personal comfort or for the good of the material com munity, or for his spiritual needs.
