Excerpt from The French Romanticists: An Anthology Of Verse And Prose Hugo's wonderful description of Paris as seen from the towers of notre-dame. Examples of the prose of Vigny and Musset, and a more adequate presentation of sainte-beuve and Gautier will be found in the companion volume. The selection from Chateaubriand, consisting of a number of short passages, has been made with a view to illustrate the new style which he initiated, and which has profoundly in uenoed the whole later development of French prose. There is nothing from Atala or Ren???, for the reason that they both should be read in entirety by every student of the Romantic Movement, or, indeed, of French literature in general. We have been very sparing with notes, except in the case of pieces like Hugo's Grenade or the passage from Notre - Dam, which are full of topographical references.
