520			_a"French Classics" by William Cleaver Wilkinson is a literary analysis and collection written in the early 20th century. This work aims to introduce readers, particularly those versed exclusively in the English language, to the richness of French literature through selected extracts from its key authors. The volume presents significant French literary figures whose works have remained influential, covering genres from historical narratives to essays and novels. The opening of the text lays the groundwork for an exploration of French literature, tracing its evolution and diversity. Wilkinson emphasizes the complexity of curating a selection from a living body of literature, distinguishing it from the more finite Greek and Latin traditions. He introduces the importance of the chosen authors, including historical figures like Froissart, and sets the expectation that the subsequent chapters will provide insights into their contributions, styles, and the cultural impact of their works on both literature and society at large.
