| This week, let’s work on a dictation with Victor Hugo. He was not only a French poet, but also an essayist, a statesman, a visual artist and a human rights campaigner, and perhaps the most influential exponent of the Romantic movement in France. Conservative in his youth, Hugo moved to the political left. Just click below to listen to the dictation in French, and try to type what you hear. Good luck ! |

| This week, we are back on another part of Mme Bovary’s dictation. The publication of Madame Bovary in 1857 was followed by more scandal than admiration; at first, it was not easy to understand that this novel was the symbol of something new: the scrupulously truthful portraiture of society and life.

| Today we picked up a text from French novelist Balzac ( 1799-1850 ) : “Le Père Goriot”. It is the story of Eugène de Rastignac, the character at the center of the action, a slightly idealistic and highly ambitious law student who lives in the same rundown boarding house in a seedy area of Paris as Goriot. This novel was written around 1834-1835. Just click below to listen to the dictation in French, and try to type what you hear. Good luck ! |
