+ Jarqucs-Benigne Bossuet, born at Dijon (1627 — 1704). X Fenelon (1651—1715). THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY— LITERATURE, ETC. 277 Fenelon, in his Telemachus, through Bernardin de St. Pierre, led up to the theories of J. J. Rousseau, and may thus he reckoned one of the precursors of the Revolution. Yet Bossuet and Fenelon still remain the most hrilliant person- ifications of Christian genius, as understood by French genius, polished and shaped by assiduous study of the ancients. Madame de Scvigne ; J...ean de La Brwjhe. — Women, who had contributed to the elegance of this society, coiild not fail also to find expression in a superior writer. This genius was Madame de Sevigne, * whose letters, lively, observant, and witty, still charm us by their pictures of a past society, which there re- appears as in a mirror. The first of feminine letter-writers, she raises, embellishes, animates and illumines all that she touches, and she touches every subject save the highest. In fact all great subjects were forbidden ; to handle them was full of danger.
