Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of French Prosody for the Use of English Students It has for some time seemed to me singular English boys should be expected to read and appreciate French verse by the light of the intellectus sibi permissus; while no one dreams of applying the same system, or rather want of system, to the study of Sophocles or Catullus. Doubtless the Greek and Latin metres are more intricate than the French; yet it may be questioned, on the other hand, whether they are not more natural to the English ear. At any rate, it may safely be asserted that French prosody, being untaught, remains in most cases unknown, and French verse continues to be to the French-reading and French-speaking Englishman a mysterious kind of prose. There are excellent French treatises on versification, notably those of Pierre Richelet, M. Napoleon Landais, M. de Banville, and M. Mainard, on which the present little book is principally based. But from the standpoint of an Englishman, still more of an English boy, these books are at once inadequate and over-elaborate. They lack the explanations required by the foreigner, whose ear is attuned to other combinations; they enter into details of taste unnecessary to a beginner; and they are tainted with the party spirit of the controversy between Classicism and Romanticism.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1884 edition. Excerpt: ... ON SOME MISCELLANEOUS POINTS OF PRONUNCIATION, DICTION, AND STYLE. ONE of the difficulties in the way of an Englishman's appreciating French poetry is the treatment of words and names from his own and other accented languages. Words from German, English, Italian, Latin, Greek, or Hebrew, if pronounced with the proper accent, are essentially incompatible with French in a way that they are not with other languages. Accordingly, they are in French verse deprived of the tonic accent, and pronounced as far as possible as if they were French words of similar spelling, except that final consonants are usually sounded. Thus, since ei in peine --a. short open e, ei in Heine is pronounced in the same way. The au in Faust is treated as 3, and so is the o in lost. and accordingly these words can rhyme. Tom, qu'un abandon scandalise, Recite Love's Labour Lost; Et Fritz explique a Cydalise Le Walpurgisnichtstraum de Faust. Th. Gautier, Emaux et Camies. The e mute of English, which is now a mere typographical sign, and the atonic final e of German, which is more of a syllable than the French e mute, are both assimilated entirely to e mute. Thus Love's is a dissyllable in the stanza just quoted, and Gladstone counts as three syllables in the following couplet: -- Personne pour toi. Tous sont d'accord. Celui-ci, Nomme Gladstone, dit a tes bourreaux: Merci. V. Hugo, VAnnee Terrible. In Latin, short e counts as e, um as omm, and the vowels are generally nasalized before n, as in the ordinary French school-boy pronunciation. One result of the removal of the tonic accent is, that final syllables, which would be quite atonic in their own language, are made to bear the caesura and rhyme. Baudelaire even goes so far as to write rhymes in...
