Graduated Course of Translation Into French Prose Preceded by Advice to Students (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Graduated Course of Translation Into French Prose Preceded by Advice to Students
Some pieces are translations into French by the master hand of Taine; two or three are translations into English that obtained the' prize in the monthly competitions of the journal of Education, with a few emendations; most are my own. Sometimes my endeavour to introduce grammatical and other difficulties in pieces where style is not the primary object, may detract from the style itself: here the pedagogue craves indulgence on the plea of utility. At all events I hope that my efforts, if weak in themselves, will have the fruitful result of urging others to do better.
