About this book
The Christmas Kalends of Provence, and some other Provençal festivals, is credited to Thomas A. Janvier. A speaker says that by obviously sincere admiration of the Château and its surroundings he was so fortunate as to win Misè Fougueiroun's favour at the outset. A speaker says that four years earlier, as the official representatives of an American troubadour, they had come upon an embassy to the troubadours of Provence, and had ended as members of the Society of the Félibrige.
The text says the mistral took a very telling part in the performance, and that players of the Comédie Française were quick to perceive and to utilize its artistic possibilities. In the very midst of the solemn denunciation of Œdipus by Tiresias, the long white beard of the blind prophet suddenly was blown upward.
