La langue française à travers les siècles is more than just a
linguistic study of the language. It links the vast domains of
language and culture, history and literature, in order to give a
full and accurate account of the historical developments that
occurred during a particular time in history. Elegantly written in
a user-friendly and easy-to-understand style, and supplemented by
illustrations, charts, and maps, the book is accessible to
intermediate students, as well as advanced students. It can be used
in French phonetics courses, or in culture and civilization
courses. Last, but not least, it will be of interest to anyone
interested in the evolution of the French language from its Latin
origins to the twenty-first century.
