Heritage
Vers le milieu du douzi癡me si癡cle un clerc inconnu se faisant appeler Turpin, archev礙que de Reims, 矇crivit une 'histoire' de 'Charlemagne et Roland' en latin. L'inconnu s'identifia ? Turpin, guerrier saint et aime de la Chanson de Roland; ? son personnage inspire d'un Charlemagne d矇j? monarque l矇gendaire et embl癡me vivant de cet id矇al tant envi矇 du roi bon et fort, il donna pour compagnons Roland et ses pairs et, ayant travers矇 avec ceux-ci et avec l'arm矇e des croises les 矇preuves des guerres d'Espagne, il 矇crivit la v矇rit矇 sur tout ce qu'ils avaient fait et endur矇 ensemble. Cependant, l'invention majeure du pseudo-Turpin est d'avoir fait de St Jacques le g矇nie tut矇laire de la croisade de Charlemagne en Espagne, le bon ange qui arrive miraculeusement au bon moment et enfin, l'intercesseur qui obtient le salut ultime de Charlemagne. La mati癡re de laquelle le pseudo-Turpin puisa son r矇cit est cette tradition 矇pique fran癟aise dont une partie nous est esquiss矇e aujourd'hui, seulement dans son oeuvre. Les 矇pisodes de cette croisade, qui dura quatorze ans, furent emprunt矇s ? l'矇pop矇e: ici, on pense surtout ? la Chanson de Roland et ? sa grande trag矇die de Roncevaux transform矇e, de po矇sie qu'elle 矇tait, en historie contrefaite et en fausse pi矇t矇.Nous avons dans Turpin 1 cette histoire-l?. Elle fut traduite vers 1210--20 en fran癟ais, en prose, celle-ci devenant de plus en plus le v矇hicule privil矇gie par les raconteurs. La traduction n'existe plus dans sa forme originale, mais le manuscrit qui a servi de base au pr矇sent ouvrage reste fid癡le au texte latin, en plus d'礙tre r矇dig矇 en prose claire et incisive. Les copies du manuscrit, neuf en tout, montrent avec quelle libert矇 les scribes manipulaient la langue de l'original. Dans une r矇daction de notre Turpin I - une r矇daction repr矇sent矇e par six manuscrits et reproduite int矇gralement en appendice dans cette 矇dition - la pr矇m矇ditation associ矇e ? l'intervention des scribes rev礙t plus d'importance. Vers la fin de la chronique, cette fois, on introduit St. Denis, que l'on pose en rival a St Jacques en lui confiant le r繫le qui non seulement assure le salut de l'Empereur, mais accroit l'importance de L'Abbaye de St-Denis a la fois comme si癡ge politique et comme v矇ritable coeur de la France.

Bootstrap French Grammar
Over 550 pages packed with 224 grammar topics and over 4000 annotated examples, Bootstrap French Grammar provides a comprehensive grounding in the fundamentals of French grammar using a proven highly effective systematic and incremental method. Starting from the beginning, the idea is progress in small self-contained steps (called 'topics'). Each topic builds on the last, by incrementally adding new grammatical patterns, new vocabulary and lots and lots of useful examples. Bootstrap French Grammar proves that a solid grounding in grammar basics is the key to mastering a second language. Grammatical rules and concepts are clearly explained with one topic building on the next - reenforcing the patterns learned earlier while incrementally introducing new material. Hundreds of new words are introduced alongside the grammar to help learners quickly build their French speaking and comprehension prowess. Each topic includes a thorough explanation of the grammar and then lots of examples that illustrate the grammar. Each example includes an English translation, as well as notes highlighting how each example illustrates that topic's grammar, as well as the meanings of new French words as they are encountered. THE COMPANION MOBILE APP A companion mobile application is now available called Bootstrap French Grammar. The app includes all the same content as in this book - 224 grammar topics and over 4000 example phrases. And in additional, there is high quality French native-speaker audio for every example. The mobile app is available for iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android here: https: //www.declansoftware.com/frenchgrammar IMPORTANT: The companion app is NOT free even if you purchased the book. To unlock all Topics requires an in-app purchase. The book and mobile app are easy to coordinate using QR codes. Just scan the QR code at the beginning of any chapter in the book with the app and it will take you straight to the topic where you will find all the examples with the high-quality audio matching the chapter in the book. So if you prefer to have the grammar set out in book form but would also like to be able to listen to the example sentences, then the book/app combination is perfect for you.
