Book excerpt: The Women of the French Salons by Amelia Ruth Gere Mason PREFACE It has been a labor of love with many distinguished Frenchmen to recall the memories of the women who have made their society so illustrious, and to retouch with sympathetic insight the features which time was beginning to dim. One naturally hesitates to enter a field that has been gleaned so carefully, and with such brilliant results, by men like Cousin, Sainte-Beuve, Goncourt, and others of lesser note. But the social life of the two centuries in which women played so important a role in France is always full of human interest from whatever point of view one may regard it. If there is not a great deal to be said that is new, old facts may be grouped afresh, and old modes of life and thought measured by modern standards. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

For if they were too often, alas! Corrupt, they were no more than any other human being, wholly corrupt. When one thinks of them, one must needs think too of a tact and kindliness most womanly and most rare, of hearts not a little generous, of ideals not always base, and of a wit, tenderness, and under standing that must have made social life a witch's charm for care.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citoyenne Jacqueline, Vol. 3: A Woman's Lot in the Great French Revolution In the middle of the summer of 1793 there were not above two or three thousand prisoners, and while the number was limited the company was naturally select. It consisted largely of ex royalists, both nobles and people; mechanics from Lyons and Bordeaux, peasants from La Vendee, and a Sprinkling of Lafayettists and Girondists. The etiquette between these widely-separated classes was easily settled and maintained. The quality, indeed, took pride in bestowing largesses on the people, and retaining them as their de pendants.

Download or read book Woman as Force in History written by Mary Ritter Beard and published by Octagon Press, Limited. This book was released on 1976 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this classic, pioneering work on the status and position of women, Mary R. Beard challenges the widely held belief that women have been subject to men throughout the ages. She tests this idea of subjection against historical realities--legal, religious, economic, social, intellectual, military, political, and philosophical--and finds it to be meritless. Beard traces the error back to Sir William Blackstone's interpretation of women's legal status after marrying ("the very being or legal existence of the woman is suspended during marriage") and argues against this view. In answer to male historians who have failed to acknowledge the real influence of women in history, she provides a lengthy record of outstanding women and their contributions throughout history.

This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women of Modern France By Hugo P. (Hugo Paul) Thieme French women of the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries, when studied according to the distinctive phases of their influence, are best divided into three classes: those queens who, as wives, represented virtue, education, and family life; the mistresses, who were instigators of political intrigue, immorality, and vice; and the authoresses and other educated women, who constituted themselves the patronesses of art and literature. This division is not absolute by any means; for we see that in the sixteenth century the regent-mother (for example, Louise of Savoy and Catherine de' Medici), in extent of influence, fills the same position as does the mistress in the eighteenth century; though in the former period appears, in Diana of Poitiers, the first of a long line of ruling mistresses. Queen-consorts, in the sixteenth as in the following centuries, exercised but little influence; they were, as a rule, gentle and obedient wives-even Catherine, domineering as she afterward showed herself to be, betraying no signs of that trait until she became regent. The literary women and women of spirit and wit furthered all intellectual and social development; but it was the mistresses-those great women of political schemes and moral degeneracy-who were vested with the actual importance, and it must in justice to them be said that they not infrequently encouraged art, letters, and mental expansion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jeanne D'arc, the Maid of France Pagne, and Isabeau Romee, his wife, was born at Vouthon, a village across the hills to the west in the duchy of Bar. Among her people were a carpenter and a tiler, a brother and a nephew were in the church. There must have been a tradition of piety in the family, for the surname Rome'e was given to those who had made some famous pilgrimage, per haps as far as Rome; and Isabeau was a devout and energetic woman, with the will for holy j ourneyings, even if she herself had never taken the staff and shells. Five children were born to Jacques and Isabeau Jacquemin and Jean, Catherine, who died soon after her early marriage, Jeanne, and Pierre. The stone and plaster cottage of Jacques d'arc was separated from the church only by the graveyard, and his little plot of ground which was both garden and orchard. It was more splendid than many of its neighbors, for it had three or four rooms, and the cattle were not stabled under the roof. Near the entrance the inevitable great manure-heap was buttressed up for spring farming, and wood was stacked ready for fireplace and oven. In the living-room, to the left of the doorway, the low ceiling is crossed by oak dark with age, and by the great fireplace in the corner the lantern might be hung on a projecting beam, when daylight had faded from the one window. Here the father and mother had their cupboard bed, a few. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Medieval Women and War written by Sophie Harwood and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, Sophie Harwood uses the Old French tradition as a lens through which to examine women and warfare from the 12th to the 14th centuries. The result is a skilled analysis of gender roles in the medieval era, and a heightened awareness of how important literary texts are to our understanding of the historical period in which they circulated. Medieval Women and War examines both the text and illustrations of over 30 Old French manuscripts to highlight the ways in many of the texts differ from their traditionally assumed (usually classical) sources. Structured around five pivotal female types – women cited as causes for violence, women as victims of violence, women as ancillaries to warriors, women as warriors themselves, and women as political influences – this important book unpicks gendered boundaries to shed new light on the social, political and military structures of warfare as well as adding nuance to current debates on womanhood in the middle ages.
