admittance

Mis à jour: 29 juillet 2026

We cannot but regret the many visions such as Frédérique which were refused admittance to Daudet's essentially romantic mind by the uncompromising laws of a realism which he had mistakenly accepted as his guide. The composition of "Les Rois en exil" is defective, but its charm is great. In "Numa Roumestan" the technique is better.
