4.9/5 (18318 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Pierre Le Tourneur This volume aims to present a clear and connected account of a little-known and almost forgotten figure in French literature. The beginnings of the Romantic Movement in France in the latter part of the eighteenth century were aided and accelerated by the influence of English literature, and especially by the work of Young, Ossian, and Shakespeare. To Pierre Le Tourneur belongs the honor of having produced the first complete translations of these three poets, and of having made them known to his countrymen. A study of his life and work is, then, of distinct interest in the history of literary cosmopolitanism in France. No detailed treatment of the subject as a whole, such as the present essay attempts, has before been made. Lacroix in his Influence de Shakespeare sur le Theatre Francais (1856), Professor Lounsbury in Shakespeare and Voltaire (1902), and M. Jusserand in Shakespeare in France under the Old Regime (1899), devote certain chapters to valuable studies of the translation of Shakespeare.
