Book excerpt: Excerpt from French Furniture To these general considerations, applicable to the study of domestic art in every country, we must add one which has special reference to the genius of France, and will be to some extent the guiding principle of this book. The sons of the soil in that country were never, strictly speaking, inventors, they never evolved the primary germ of a new style; but they had a marvellous gift for assimilating the foreign ideas with which they were brought In contact, and, as it were, recasting in the powerful crucible of their brain enfeebled.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from French and English Furniture: Distinctive Styles and Periods Described and Illustrated The purpose of this book is to give specimens of good workmanship in Modern Domestic Architecture and the Applied Arts. It is meant to be at once useful to the general householder and attractive to the professional student. It cannot claim to represent examples of all the notable work which has been done in recent years by British architects and by British crafts men. A thorough treatment oi the present subject would require several volumes, and a. Very singular display of mixed traditions and opposed convictions. A book, like an essay, should have a limited design of its own, a unity of intention and impression; and this being essential, many points of View have to be passed by in silence. But The British Home of To-day, though necessarily limited in scope, contains a very rich selection from the best contemporary work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from French Furniture Under Louis XVI and the Empire In this volume Empire furniture will occupy much less space than Louis Seize. It may perhaps be enough to say that, in our opinion, this inequality is amply justified by the differences in merit, comfort, and adaptableness to the needs of ordinary life that exist between the two styles; but there is one more solid and positive reason. The aim of this handbook, like its predecessors, is to impart a better knowledge of the furniture of past times, but most of all the furniture that was simple and practical, the good, honest pieces with no pretentions to sham luxuriousness, belonging to the modest middle classes or even the country folk of old France. Now, the Empire Style never had time to make its way into the depths of the provinces, where everything is so slow to change. In any case, how could that style, so learned and archaeological, which had sprung finished and complete from the brain of a few fanatical devotees of antiquity, as one Minerva sprang in full panoply from out of the head of Jupiter - how could that style, so lacking in tradition, ever have found favour with the country people of France? How could they have understood it? And accordingly we find it left no trace in the output of the workshops of Provence or Normandy or Brittany.

This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from French Furniture in the Middle Ages and Under Louis XIII A consecutive and complete history of French furniture - complete in that it should not leave out the furniture used by the lower middle classes, the artisans and the peasants - remains still to be written; and the four little books of this series are far from claiming to fill such a gap. And yet they will perhaps usefully fill their modest place by giving some hints and ideas, as accurate as possible even though very elementary and simple, to those who appreciate the excellent work wrought by old-time joiners out of walnut trees and cherry trees and oaks. The present passion for those plain pieces of furniture that six or eight generations of the folk of Lorraine, of Provence, of Gascony or Normandy have polished by use and filled with their humble treasures, has more legitimate foundations than the mere craze for running after a fashion and the astute advertising of dealers: they are practical, their solid strength is proof against the lapse of years - if we dared, we might say their soul is dovetailed to their frames - their material the "bon bois vif, sec loyal et marchand," spoken of in every article of the Statuts et ordonnances des maistres huchiers-menuisiers, is often most admirable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Macmillan's French Readings for Children This French class-book has been compiled with a view to provide beginners with entertaining reading material - so easy both in form and substance as to be well within the intellectual grasp of minds as yet innocent of grammar. I make no apology for admitting in the front rank of these pages a not inconsiderable amount of versified matter, in which rhyme is more conspicuous than reason. I will only say that such verses, simple in construction and primitive in meaning, afford advantages for overcoming the difficulties of pronunciation which would be vainly sought in common prose. It is by means of rhymes that beginners can best be impressed with the fact that champ, for instance, sounds like chant; quand like c& sang like cent; faim like fin, feint; temps like tant, tend, etc. With a view to meet the wishes of teachers anxious to systematise the knowledge of sounds acquired by their pupils in the course of their readings, I have summed up the elements of French pronunciation in a short Introduction.
