A Modern Telemachus (Classic Reprint) by Charlotte Mary Yonge Pdf

Excerpt from A Modern Telemachus The idea of this tale was taken from The Mariners' Chronicle, compiled by a person named Scott early in the last century - a curious book of narratives of maritime adventures, with exceedingly quaint illustrations. Nothing has ever shown me more plainly that truth is stranger than fiction, for all that is most improbable here is the actual fact. The Comte de Bourke was really an Irish Jacobite, naturalised in France, and married to the daughter of the Marquis de Varennes, as well as in high favour with the Marshal Duke of Berwick. In 1719, just when the ambition of Elizabeth Famese, the second wife of Philip V. of Spain, had involved that country in a war with England, France, and Austria, the Count was transferred from the Spanish Embassy to that of Sweden, and sent for his wife and two elder children to join him at a Spanish port.

A Modern Telemachus by Charlotte Mary Yonge Pdf

A Modern Telemachus: Large Print Charlotte Mary Yonge Algerine history confirms what is said of his treatment. Louis XIV. had bombarded the pirate city, and compelled the Dey to receive a consul and to liberate French prisoners and French property; but the lady having been taken in an Italian ship, the Dutchman was afraid to set her ashore without first taking her to Algiers, lest he should fall under suspicion. He would not venture on taking so many women on board his own vessel, being evidently afraid of his crew of more than two hundred Turks and Moors, but sent seven men on board the prize and took it in tow. Curiously enough, history mentions the very tempest which drove the tartane apart from her captor, for it also shattered the French transports and interfered with Berwick's Spanish campaign.

A Modern Telemachus by Charlotte M Yonge Pdf

'Make mention thereto Touching my much loved father's safe return, If of his whereabouts I may best hear.' Odyssey (MUSGRAVE). 'Oh! brother, I wish they had named you Télémaque, and then it would have been all right!' 'Why so, sister? Why should I be called by so ugly a name? I like Ulysses much better; and it is also the name of my papa.' 'That is the very thing. His name is Ulysses, and we are going to seek for him.' 'Oh! I hope that cruel old Mentor is not coming to tumble us down over a great rook, like Télémaque in the picture.' 'You mean Père le Brun?' 'Yes; you know he always says he is our Mentor. And I wish he would change into a goddess with a helmet and a shield, with an ugly face, and go off in a cloud. Do you think he will, Estelle?' 'Do not be so silly, Ulick; there are no goddesses now.'

Excerpt from The Adventures of Telemachus, the Son of Ulysses My principal view, however, was much more extenlive than to af. Fl! Learners of the French language. I have attempted to render a work, full of ingenious fiction, jult reafoning, important precepts, and poetical imagery, as pleafing in Englilh as it is in French, to thofe who read it as their native tongue: if I have fucceeded, l have not only made a valuable addition to our polite literature, but reu dered my country a much more important fervice, by putting into the hands of our youth one of the few books which genius and learning have dedicated to virtue; which at once captivate the ima gination, inform the underllanding, and regulate the will.

The Adventures of Telemachus, the Son of Ulysses by Salignac de la Mothe-Fenelon Pdf

Excerpt from The Adventures of Telemachus, the Son of Ulysses: From the French As the author of Telemachus has avoided the intrigues of modern romances, so hu he not fallen into the marvellous with which the ancients have been reproached; he never makes horses speak, nor tripods walk, nor statues work. His hero is continually conducted by Minerva, which makes every. Thing possible, and at the same time intimates, that man can do nothing without the assistance of divine wisdom. Nor is this all i the sublime consists in the concealing (unknown to Telema. Chus) the goddess under a human form, which renders it more probable and natural, and at the same time equally marvellous.
