Summary "The Teaching and Cultivation of the French Language in England during Tudor and Stuart Times" by Kathleen Lambley is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This scholarly work explores the evolution and methods of teaching the French language in England during the Tudor and Stuart periods, emphasizing its significance in education and society during those times. The book likely focuses on the formalization of French instruction, its societal status, and the interplay between language and culture in England. The opening of the text introduces the author's objective: to trace the history of French language teaching in England, particularly between significant historical events that impacted the French language's status. Lambley discusses the early influences and educational practices that laid the groundwork for French instruction, highlighting the contributions of notable figures such as John Palsgrave, who recognized the importance of formalizing French grammar for English speakers. Additionally, references are made to the pedagogical tools of the time and the gradual shift in societal perceptions of the language, setting a foundation for the in-depth examination of the topic in subsequent chapters.
