Abstract

THIS new edition of Renan's second most famous book has the great additional advantage of an introduction by Dr. Coulton. It may well be, as Dr. Coulton suggests, that these autobiographical reminiscences will survive the long and solid works in which Renan condensed the learning of his time. If so, it will be due more, one may think, to the charming picture he has left us of the Breton life and country and friends of his youth than to the account of the long-drawn struggle which took him at last from his early faith and intended profession. Recollections of My Youth. By Ernest Renan. Translated by C. B. Pitman. Pp. xlvi + 360 + 2 plates. (London: George Routledge and Sons, Ltd., 1929.) 7s. 6d. net.
