Benjamin W. Wells, Ph. D.; Modern French Literature; Boston, Roberts Bros., 1896. In this work Mr. Wells has given both a companion and a guide to modern French literature. The plan of the work is distinctly good. Most of the book is given to tracing the evolution of literary ideals in France since the great Revolution. The chapters on the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries are consequently introductory to the large scope of the work. Particularly interesting are the chapters on the Romantic School and Hugo. The work is not at all technical, the style is pleasant, and all in all the book is very agreeable reading.
