Originally published in 1933, this book presents a concise study
regarding the works of Racine, Marivaux and Musset, focusing on
their pioneering psychological insights and literary realism. The
text was written by the renowned Cambridge Classical scholar and
critic Arthur Augustus Tilley (1851-1942). This book will be of
value to anyone with an interest in dramatic criticism and French
literature.
Arthur Tilley (1851 1942) was a British linguist and historian
specialising in the literature of the French Renaissance. He was a
Fellow of Kings's College, Cambridge, and was appointed Lecturer in
French in 1896. This edited volume, first published in 1922,
provides an overview of changes in French society between 987 and
1500. Each chapter focuses on a specific aspect of that society and
was written by a specialist in the field. The architecture,
literature, industries and commerce, and political and military
history of medieval France are discussed in detail; shorter
chapters deal with more specialist topics, such as the evolution of
the French language and developments in sculpture during this
period. This arrangement allows for a depth of discussion and
detail on these topics, providing a comprehensive review of
medieval French culture and society.
