More Info

These texts were originally used in France to aid in the preparation of a French dictionary, the Trésor de la langue française and made available through the University of Chicago. The 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries are equally represented. There is a smaller selection of 17th century, Medieval, and Renaissance texts. This collection lends itself to textual and etymological analysis as well as literary and cultural studies. Genres include novels, verse, theater, journalism, essays, correspondence, and treatises. Subjects include literary criticism, biology, history, economics, and philosophy.
