Professor Wendell's Second Lecture

Professor Barrett Wendell '77 delivered the second of a series of eight lectures on "Impressions of Contemporary France" in the Fogg Lecture Room yesterday afternoon. His special topic was "The Structure of French Society."

Professor Wendell showed how the society of France is divided into four distinct classes: the aristocracy, who are the diplomatists; the artists, who belong neither to the aristocracy nor the "bourgeois;" the "bourgeois," who are analogous to the middle classes of England; and lastly the peasants who compose the laboring classes.

The third lecture of the series on "The Family and Domestic Life" will be delivered next Wednesday in the Fogg Lecture Room at 4.30 o'clock.
