Book excerpt: Of all the French epigrammatic writers La Rochefou- cauld is at once the most widely known, and the most distinguished. Voltaire, whose opinion on the cen- tury of Louis XIV. is entitled to the greatest weight, says, “One of the works that most largely contributed to form the taste of the nation, and to diffuse a spirit of justice and precision, is the collection of maxims, by Francois Duc de la Rochefoucauld.”This Francois, the second Duc de la Rochefoucauld, Prince de Marsillac, the author of the maxims, was one of the most illustrious members of the most illus- trious families among the French noblesse.

Book excerpt: Francois VI, Duc De La Rochefoucauld, le Prince de Marcillac (1613-1680), was a noted French author of maxims and memoirs, as well as an example of the accomplished 17th-century nobleman. He was born in Paris in the Rue des Petits Champs, at a time when the royal court oscillated between aiding the nobility and threatening it. Until 1650, he bore the title of Prince de Marcillac. His importance as a social and historical figure is, however, far inferior to his importance in literature. His work in this respect consists of three parts-letters, Memoirs and the Maximes. With a few exceptions La Rochefoucauld's maxims represent the matured result of the reflection of a man deeply versed in the business and pleasures of the world, and possessed of an extraordinarily fine and acute intellect, on the conduct and motives which have guided himself and his fellows. La Rochefoucauld's theories about human nature are based on such topics as self-interest and selflove, passions and emotions, vanity, relationships, love, conversation, insincerity, and trickery. His writings are very concise, straightforward, and candid.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1851 edition. Excerpt: ...with him, he may suffer some evil, and that an evil of such a description as has been stated."--Rhet. book ii. ch. viii. The philosopher Aristippus appears to have held a nearly similar opinion, for "being asked why men gave to the poor rather than to philosophers, he replied, because they think themselves may sooner come to be poor than to be philosophers."--Bacon, Apophthegms. H we render them are, to speak properly, a good which. we do to ourselves by anticipation. 276. Narrowness of mind is the cause of obstinacy--we do not easily believe what is beyond our sight. 277. It is deceiving ourselves to fancy that it is only the violent passions, such as ambition and love, which can triumph over the others. In Publius Syrus is to the same effect: --"Homo qui in homine calamitoso est misericors meminit sui. In adversis tutelam parat, qui in secundis commodat." Hobbes says, "Grief for the calamity of another is pity, and ariseth from the imagination that a like calamity may befall himself, and therefore is called compassion."--Leviathan. "On ne plaint jamais dans autrui que les maux dont on ne se croit pas exempt soi-meme."--Bousseau, Emile, 4. La Bruyere, in a passage aimed probably at La Rochefoucauld, has a stinging remark on these definitions, which, indeed, it goes far towards overthrowing: --" S'il est vrai que la pitie ou la compassion soit un retour vers nousmemes qui nous met en la place des malheureux, pourquoi tirent-ils de nous si peu de soulagement dans leurs miseres?"--Du C ur. dolence, all languid as it is, nevertheless is frequently their master; it spreads its dominion over all the designs and all the actions of life, and thus destroys and insensibly consumes the passions and the virtues. 278....
