Meditations
First published in 1920, this volume contains a selection of meditations by the French poet Alphonse de Lamartine (1790–1869), chosen and edited by the Cambridge scholar Hugh Fraser Stewart. Each of the twenty poems is presented in the original French with source attribution given in the footnotes. A short introductory note in English provides a background to the poems and offers some thoughts by Dr Steward on Lamartine's standing as a poet and political figure.
