Odes: In Contribution To The Song Of French History; The Revolution, Napoleon, France December 1870, Alsace-Lorraine is a collection of poems written by the English novelist and poet George Meredith. The book is divided into three sections, each dedicated to a different period of French history. The first section focuses on the French Revolution, with poems that explore the themes of liberty, equality, and fraternity. The second section is dedicated to Napoleon Bonaparte, with poems that celebrate his military prowess and his contribution to the modernization of France. The final section deals with the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and the subsequent annexation of Alsace-Lorraine by Germany. The poems in this section express sympathy for the French people and their struggle against foreign aggression. Throughout the book, Meredith's writing is characterized by a deep appreciation for French culture and history, as well as a commitment to the values of democracy and freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
