Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Abbé Prévost and English Literature Prevost's spelling and punctuation have not been modem ized. In certain cases, citations have been given in full which to some readers may seem unduly long. The Pour et Contre is not, however, readily accessible, and it seemed, on the whole, wise to give the more important passages in Prevost's own words rather than to leave the reader to trust to my own résumés of the author's thought.
