Excerpt from Notes on England
Grudging praise and careful study. To his political attitude, rather than to the intrinsic value of his writings, he owed it that, at the early age of thirty seven, he was elected a member of the French Academy, 8. Body which usually refuses to open its ranks to young men, however promising, who have merely produced a few ephemeral works, unless their authors are Ministers of State, or Archbishops. His highest ambition was now gratified.

Excerpt from Notes on England
Last summer the University of Oxford resolved to confer upon Dr. Döllinger the honorary degree of Doctor of Civil Law. It was considered fitting that a famous and an accomplished Frenchman should he associated in the exceptional mark of respect paid to an erudite and illustrious German. Out of the numerous Frenchmen of eminence and renown who might with propriety have been chosen, M. Taine was unanimously selected.
Shortly afterwards, the publication of a series of papers, entitled "Notes on England," was begun in the columns of the Paris Temps. Wherever French newspapers circulate and the French language is read, these "Notes" attracted attention. They were quoted, commented on, praised, and criticised. Almost contemporaneously, a selection from them, translated into English, appeared in the columns of The Daily News.
