Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature Before 1700 This study was begun in October 1916 at the suggestion of Professor Gustave Lanson, who was at that time lecturing at Columbia University, and to whom it was my privilege to act as office assistant. My research has been twice interrupted: from January to March 1917, while I was in France as Secretary and Interpreter to the Rockefeller Tuberculosis Commission, and again from May 1917, when I went to France as a private soldier of the United States Army, until January 1919, at which time I returned to the United States and to civilian life. Although I had originally intended to make a complete study of the history of the Extraordinary Voyage as a type of novel in French Literature, I have been obliged, by the extent of the subject, to limit my study in the present volume to the period preceding the year 1700. It is my purpose to continue in a second volume the investigation of the Extraordinary Voyages published since that date. It is only fitting to say that without the suggestion of Professor Lanson the present work never would have been begun, and that, without his continued interest, it certainly never would have been completed. If in its accomplishment any credit whatever is to be accorded, this will have been due in large measure to the inspiration received from Professor Lanson. If on the other hand, errors of statement or of judgment are discovered in it, they may be set down as exclusively my own.
