Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from La Societe Francaise du Xvie Siecle au Xxe Siecle
Tragedie ou comedie, elle ne finira point, pas plus que ne finira la France, car la vie, la contradiction, la diversite, sont la loi meme du progres; il faut qu'il y ait des heretiques a cote des croyants, et la comparaison du miroir brise s'applique aux histo riens aussi bien qu'aux hommes politiques; Ou voit dans son fragment le miroir entier, et l'on croit que le voisin n'a rien.
