Excerpt from Military Servitude and Grandeur Alfred de Vigny having expressed the desire that his works never be preceded by a preface, or a critical study of any kind, one can but respect the wishes of the great French poet, and refer those anxious to know more of his history to the writings of Messieurs St. Beuve, Ratisbonne, Brunetiere, Lemaitre, France, etc. The book on our own great war has not been written. We are still too close to events to see them in their just light. Time and meditation will be necessary to produce such a volume. But, anxious that the American public should better comprehend how pure and profound are the sources of French patriotism, I have asked the George H. Doran Company to publish this volume. Though first brought out in 1885, it contains so much that is analogous to the spirit that has inspired our modern heroes that it might almost be called a war book.

Excerpt from Servitude Et Grandeur Militaires The important question is, What kind of literature is to be chosen for reading and translation 7 To this question I have already given my answer undoubtedly it is desirable to set a high standard from the beginning, and to challenge the powers of the pupil by putting before him well-chosen selections from the best authors, rather than to entice his sympathy with easy and amusing literature. If the teacher tries to amuse his pupils and make the time pass quickly, he will fail to awaken their interest in the subject; but, if he appeals to their intelligence from the first, appreciation will quickly grow. It is with this object that the present series is being undertaken - a series in which certain modern standard French works, of various kinds, have been chosen, and edited with the smallest possible number of notes, mostly on points of literary and historical interest.

Excerpt from Servitude Et Grandeur Militaires S'il est vrai, selon le poete catholique, qu'il n'y ait pas de plus grande peine que de se rappeler un temps heureux, dans la misere, il est aussi vrai que l'ame trouve quelque bonheur a se rappeler, dans un moment de calme et de liberte, les temps de peine ou d'esclavage. Cette melancolique emotion me fait jeter en arriere un triste regard sur quelques annees de ma vie, quoique ces annees soient bien proches de celle-ci, et que cette vie ne soit pas bien longue encore. Je ne puis m'empecher de dire combien j'ai vu de souffrances peu connues et courageusement portees par une race d'hommes toujours dedaignee ou honoree outre mesure, selon que les nations la trouvent inutile ou necessaire.

'He is, as Proust was before him, the great literary chronicler of his culture in his time.' GUARDIAN 'A Dance to the Music of Time' is universally acknowledged as one of the great works of English literature. Reissued now in this definitive edition, it stands ready to delight and entrance a new generation of readers. In this first volume, Nick Jenkins is introduced to the ebbs and flows of life at boarding school in the 1920s, spent in the company of his friends: Peter Templer, Charles Stringham, and Kenneth Widmerpool. Though their days are filled with visits from relatives and boyish pranks, usually at the expense of their housemaster Le Bas, a disastrous trip in Templer’s car threatens their new friendship. As the school year comes to a close, the young men are faced with the prospects of adulthood, and with finding their place in the world.

A powerful and impassioned historical account of the largest successful revolt by enslaved people in history: the Haitian Revolution of 1791–1803 “One of the seminal texts about the history of slavery and abolition.... Provocative and empowering.” —The New York Times Book Review The Black Jacobins, by Trinidadian historian C. L. R. James, was the first major analysis of the uprising that began in the wake of the storming of the Bastille in France and became the model for liberation movements from Africa to Cuba. It is the story of the French colony of San Domingo, a place where the brutality of plantation owners toward enslaved people was horrifyingly severe. And it is the story of a charismatic and barely literate enslaved person named Toussaint L’Ouverture, who successfully led the Black people of San Domingo against successive invasions by overwhelming French, Spanish, and English forces—and in the process helped form the first independent post-colonial nation in the Caribbean. With a new introduction (2023) by Professor David Scott.
