FATHER TOM AND THE POPEby Sir Samuel Ferguson, keeper of the Irish Records. This charming little book is quite a literary gem, a burning satire, easily surpassing "Mr. Dooley." In fact it is almost Rabelaisean in its rollicking hilarious humor.Why is it, that Ireland produces few if any great writers? The islands positively swarms with screaming politicians, fanaticeditors, and sleek, oily, well trained priests, but of thinkers there are none. In the old days, when its people were Pagan, when their gods were ideals of heroism and battle, they were a venturous people, warlike, bold and free. Ireland then produced bards of power and men of renown who could not be mastered, intimidated or mentally subdued. But since the unfortunate people embraced and accepted as a true false Syrian superstition, they have lost all their former glory and grandeur. The downfall of Innisfail dates from the landing of St. Patrick, the preaching of that untruthful sermon on Tara Hill, and the inoculation of the native Celtic mind with the base, submissive and puerile philosophy of the "lowly" Nazarene. In the argument of the three leaved shamrock there is an illusion of the senses, a deliberate deception. It was a hollow oratorical sophistry, but had the effect probably intended. It weakened and disarmed the native mind. It prepared the way for other fallacies. It overthrew the morality of the heroes and led on to the military and economic subjection and exploitation of the island by successive swarms of foreign conquerors. Vikings, Danes, Saxons, Normans, Cromwellians and Hollanders all found it an easy prey. Personal freedom and independence utterly perished. Courage and manhood depreciated. Hopelessness and fear reigned. The intellect of the nation was poisoned. Is that notthe exact meaning of Tom Moore's celebrated lament: "So sleeps the pride of former days, So glory's thrill is o'er.And hearts that once beat high for praise, Now feel that pulse no more."No more kings and ladies bright, The Harp of Tara swells, The chords alone that break at nightThe tale of Ruin tells.""Father Tom and the pope" is not a great book, remember. We do not say it is; but it is a most delightful one. Some rays of the ancient genius of the people scintillate through it. The hero of the tale, Father Tom of Connemara, goes on a visit to the Vatican. He kisses the pope's housekeeper, raises the dander of His Holiness thereby and creates no end of marvellous complications. Illustrated.This edition includes Alphonse Daudet's "History of the Pope's Mule."

La chèvre de monsieur Seguin, extrait des "Lettres de mon moulin" d'Alphonse Daudet ; Pierre et le Loup, conte musical pour enfants de Serge Prokifiev, orchestre sous la direction d'Albert Wolff

Kirjailija muuttaa Pariisista aurinkoisen Provencen sydämeen ja ostaa hylättynä olleen myllyn. Hän seuraa katseellaan paikallisia ihmisiä, tuttuja ja tuntemattomia, ja kuvaa heitä lyhyissä katkelmissaan luonnosmaisin, nopein vedoin. Koko seutu on täynnä tallentamattomia pieniä tarinoita ja ihmiskohtaloita, joita kukaan muu ei ole tullut tallentaneeksi. Alphonse Daudet'n novellikokoelma jäi kirjailijansa tunnetuimmaksi työksi. 1800-luvun Ranskaan johdattava kokoelma paljastaa Daudet'n omalaatuiseksi tarkkailijaksi, jota kiehtovat niin tavalliset ihmiset, eläimet kuin rakennuksetkin.Alphonse Daudet (1840–1897) oli ranskalainen kirjailija, joka muistetaan erityisesti novellikokoelmasta Kirjeitä myllyltäni. Daudet oli kotoisin Etelä-Ranskasta, jonka maalaiskyliä ja ihmisiä hän kuvaa tarkalla, naturalistisella otteella.

Cela fait près de quatre mille ans que le Chaperon rouge finit dévorée par le loup et qu'elle ressuscite inlassablement. Mais qu'importe les loups et ses crocs, quand le soleil brille, que les oiseaux chantent et que le docteur Polonius, un enfant affamé, un homme de lettres et deux amoureux vous accompagnent chez bonne-maman pour porter un pot de beurre...Petit conte fantaisiste en un acte sous la forme de scènes, il s'agit là d'une reprise du chef-d'œuvre de Charles Perrault. Oisif et insouciant, le Chaperon-Rouge court à sa fin tragique, cette fois en entrainer quiconque croise son chemin.Alphonse Daudet (1840-1897) naît et grandit en Provence. Suite à la ruine de son père, il devient maître d'étude à Alès pour subvenir aux besoins de sa famille. Cette période difficile lui inspirera « Le Petit Chose » (1868). Il se rend ensuite à Paris, où il acquiert une notoriété littéraire. Il devient journaliste et publie un recueil de poèmes « Les Amoureuses ». Suite à des relations avec l’entourage de l'impératrice Eugénie, il contracte la syphilis, maladie qu’il subira jusqu’à la fin de sa vie. En 1862, Alphonse Daudet publie 17 pièces de théâtre, puis il se rend en Provence afin de s’inspirer de sa région d’enfance pour écrire ses célèbres contes des « Lettres de mon Moulin » (1866). Durant la fin de sa vie, il subit les complications de la syphilis. Il est aussi sollicité par Edmond Goncourt pour fonder un groupe littéraire qui décernera chaque année un prix à un ouvrage écrit en prose — le prix Goncourt.

Jack est un petit garçon d'à peu près huit ans. Il n’est malheureusement pas très bien traité autour de lui, et semble être vu comme un pestiféré par ses professeurs et ses camarades de classe.

À travers son œuvre, Alphonse Daudet rend hommage à Gustave Flaubert et explore des thèmes universels tels que la jalousie et le harcèlement.Alphonse Daudet (1840-1897) naît et grandit en Provence.
