Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Trois Conf�rences Strasbourgeoises: Guillaume le Taciturne; Abraham Lincoln; Agrippa d'Aubign�
Mais le meilleur moyen, nous disent les moralistes, de ne pas succomber aux tentations, c'est de les fuir. Fuyons donc! Fuyons les temps pr�sents et ses grandes tristesses. Tournons-nous vers l'histoire, la grande consolatrice pour �couter une de ses plus nobles et de ses plus fortifiantes le�ons.
