What reading level is Introduction to Modern French Lyrics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
153 called carmagnole ; to this circumstance is probably due the name of the song. There is in Piedmont a town by the name of Carmagnola, where the garment in question may have been originally worn.
This famous song is in a certain way a recital of the insurrection of August 10, and of its immediate consequences. Marie Antoinette is represented under the sobriquet of Madame Veto, and the king under that of Mo7isieur Veto. Of the thirteen stanzas which compose the song, eleven are here given. In... singing, the first and second lines of each stanza are sung twice. The name of the author is unknown.
La Ca?-magnole enjoyed the same popularity as the Qa ira, was sung and danced on all occasions, at theatres and balls, as also around the guillotine, and thus became the ready signal and accompaniment of the bloody scenes of the period, until the time of the Consulate, when Bonaparte suppressed both these songs. La Carmagnole has been severely judged as exhaling an odor of blood and brutality. It was, like the Qa ira, a violent and impulsive song, rather than a patriotic ode.
