Excerpt from Contes pour les Femmes Prendre � l'antiquit�, � l'orient, � tous les temps ce qui a fait leur �l�gance particuli�re, et, sans le d�truire, le r�duire � la formule parisienne, telle est la constante occupation de ces grandes artistes. A quoi croyez - vous que pensait mademoiselle}ta chel, lorsque chantant devant le public la plus belle musique du monde je veux dire la po�sie de Cor neille et de Racine elle ressuscitait Hermione Phedre, Camille, Chim�ne, Roxane, monime?a tra duire l'impression que donnent chez le po�te ces id�ales figures?
