La Belle Hélène

Excerpt from CriquetteIt was early in the month of April, 1859. The school in the Place de la Mairie, of Belleville, had just been. Dismissed, and the little girls came pouring out in tumultuous disorder, all chatter ing and screaming at once. Suddenly a dispute arose, followed by a skirmish. A big girl threw down a poor little thing, who cried and struggled. All the others formed a circle and maliciously enjoyed the spectacle.A boy passed along, carrying upon his head an empty basket.

Excerpt from Un Mariage D'amourLudovic Halevy was born in Paris, January I, 1834. Upon the completion of his studies in the lyce'e Louis - le-grand he entered the service of the French government, and held responsible positions in the State and Colonial Departments and in the Legislative Assembly. These duties, however, did not prevent him from following his natural inclination for literary work. Under the name of Jules Servieres at first, and later under his own name, he produced a number of comedies and operettas, some of which were set to music by Offenbach, Bizet, Lecocq, and Delibes. In 1865 he relinquished his position in the Legis lative Assembly to devote his attention exclusively to letters. An indefatigable worker, his literary output soon became enor mous, short stories, farces, comedies, ballets, and operettas from his pen appeared in profusion.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Lorsqu'il apprend que deux richissimes Américaines vont s'installer dans son village de Longueval, l'Abbé Constantin se sent bien attristé. Il s'inquiète pour les bonnes moeurs de sa paroisse. Ludovic Halévy confronte bourgeois et aristocrates en montrant leurs divergences de comportement. Paru pour la première fois en 1882, cet ouvrage a fait l'objet de plusieurs rééditions (entre 1882 et 1888) et de deux adaptations cinématographiques (l'une en 1925 par Julien Duvivier et l'autre par Jean-Paul Paulin en 1933)
