Synopsis
Excerpt from Discours de Réception de M. F. De Lesseps: Réponse de M. Ernest Renan, Directeur de l'Académie
Messieurs, si je m'explique ainsi à vous avec une insistance qui peut paraître complaisante, ce n'est pas pour le vain plaisir de vous parler de moi, c'est pour vous justifier à vos propres yeux de m'avoir choisi en vous montrant les similitudes qui existaient entre mon prédécesseur et moi.
