By: Marc Fumaroli     

A New York Review Books Original

During the eighteenth century, from the death of Louis XIV until the Revolution, French culture set the standard for all of Europe. In Sweden, Austria, Italy, Spain, England, Russia, and Germany, among kings and queens, diplomats, military leaders, writers, aristocrats, and artists, French was the universal language of politics and intellectual life. In When the World Spoke French, Marc Fumaroli presents a gallery of portraits of Europeans and Americans who conversed and corresponded in French, along with excerpts from their letters or other writings. 

  These men and women, despite their differences, were all irresistibly attracted to the ideal of human happiness inspired by the Enlightenment, whose capital was Paris and whose king was Voltaire. Whether they were in Paris or far away, speaking French connected them in spirit with all those who desired to emulate Parisian tastes, style of life, and social pleasures. Their stories are testaments to the appeal of that famous “sweetness of life” nourished by France and its language.

Practical Jewelry Box
Color: Black, Size: Medium - No Mirror
I really like this little jewelry box — the black PU leather gives it a classy look. It’s the perfect size to keep on my dresser at home, but it’s also super convenient for travel. The two layers make it easy to separate earrings, rings, and necklaces without everything getting tangled. It feels well made, zips smoothly, and keeps my pieces organized whether I’m at home or packing for a trip. Such a practical and pretty find.

Great gift
Color: Black, Size: Medium - No Mirror
Great gift. My sister loved it for traveling for long trips to bring lots of jewelry, keep it organized, and not take up a ton of space. Small blemish on the inside when she opened it but otherwise good quality and looked nice!

Holds a lot and is a great buy.
Color: Black, Size: Medium - No Mirror
Arrived quickly in a nice box and plastic wrap. Holds a lot, great for travel or every day. Got the black colored one, but they have lots of colors so can easily put gold in one, silver in another and mixed in yet another. Highly recommend!
