French Ways and Their Meaning (Classic Reprint)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from French Ways and Their Meaning The Latin is this or that unless he makes the mental reservation, or at least seems so to me; but if this mental reservation is always implied, if it serves always as the background of the picture, the features portrayed may es cape caricature and yet bear some resem blance to the original. Lastly, the use of the labels anglo-saxon and Latin, for purposes of easy antithesis, must be defended and apologised for.
