Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Les �pop�es Fran�aises, Vol. 2: �tude sur les Origines Et l'Histoire de la Litt�rature Nationale
Raconter toutes nos �pop�es nationales la t�che �tait longue et d�licate. Il s'agissait de donner de chacun de nos romans une analyse qui f�t � la fois scientifique et litt�raire exacte et vivante; qui m�rit�t l'estime des �rudits et qui conqu�t en m�me temps quelque popularit� par mi les ignorants. De plus il importait que ces analyses eussent un lien qui les rattach�t les unes aux autres, et qui donn�t � la suite de nos r�cits �piques cette unit� dont aucune oeuvre ne saurait se passer.
