Summary "Tres utile et compendieulx Traicte de l'art et science d'orthographie gallicane..." is a treatise on French orthography authored by an unnamed writer during the mid-16th century. This book serves as a scholarly exploration of proper spelling and writing in the French language, addressing common pitfalls and guiding readers in achieving a purer and more accurate orthographic form. It reflects the linguistic concerns of its time, as well as the ambition to elevate the standards of the French language. The content of the book is primarily focused on the rules and intricacies of spelling in French, encompassing discussions on vowels and consonants, syllables, diphthongs, and the effects of various letters on pronunciation. Throughout the treatise, the author emphasizes the importance of restoring the integrity of the French language by rectifying poorly documented and corrupt forms of writing that have emerged over time. Through detailed explanations and examples, the treatise intends to educate readers—especially scribes and writers—on the nuances of French orthography to preserve the beauty and richness of the language for future generations.
