Initiation Into Literature is a comprehensive guide to understanding and appreciating literature written by Emile Faguet. The book is divided into three parts: the first part discusses the nature and function of literature, the second part explores literary genres such as poetry, drama, and fiction, and the third part delves into the works of specific authors like Shakespeare, Racine, and Goethe. Faguet provides insightful analysis and commentary on various literary works, and offers guidance on how to read and interpret them. The book is aimed at students of literature, as well as anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of literary works. Faguet's writing style is clear and concise, making it easy for readers to follow and understand his arguments. Overall, Initiation Into Literature is a valuable resource for anyone interested in literature and its role in our culture.LA FONTAINE.--La Fontaine was one of the greatest poets of any epoch. He had a profound sentiment for nature, a fine and penetrating knowledge of the character of men he depicted under the names of animals; he was free and fantastic as a philosopher but well instructed and sometimes profound; he had a gentle and smiling sensibility capable at times of melancholy and also now and again of a delicious elegiac; above all, he was endowed with incomparable artistic sense, which rendered him the safest and most dexterous manipulator of verse, of rhythms, and of musical sonorities, who appeared in France prior to Victor Hugo.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
