About audio and ebooks
This collection of Val茅ry’s occasional pieces鈥攕peeches, interviews, articles鈥攕hows him very much as the public figure, the first in demand when an 鈥渙ccasion鈥 needed a prominent person. Included are his speech before the French Academy on his reception into that body; his address welcoming Marshal Petain to membership in the French Academy; a witty and appealing commencement address to the young ladies of a private school; memorial addresses honoring Emile Verhaeren and Henri Bremond; an article on the 鈥淔uture of Literature,鈥 and an incisive piece on the eponymous heroine of Racine’s 笔丑猫诲谤别.
Because Val茅ry spoke on many current educational and social problems in France, Occasions will be of considerable interest to students of modern European history as well as to those concerned with French literature and drama.
Originally published in 1970.
