Thursday, September 18, found us two blocks from the Eiffel Tower at the American Library of Paris, where the students became members, benefited from an expert orientation session, and began working on their research projects. The American Library has a rich and storied history in keeping with the theme of one of our courses, that on Franco-American relations. From its origins in 1920, when the American Library Association collected books mailed to American soldiers during World War I, through the dark days of Nazi occupation, when the Library staff maintained clandestine lending services to Jews, through today, when the American Library in Paris "remains the largest English-language lending library on the European continent," the Library has served as a European center for authors and readers of all ages and nationalities. Among others, Edith Wharton, Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, André Gide, André Maurois, Colette, Thornton Wilder, Archibald MacLeish, Mary McCarthy, Richard Wright, Samuel Beckett, and Adam Gopnik have all played a role in the Library's past. (For the basis of this summary and for more information, see https://www.americanlibraryinparis.org/about-the-library/history-of-the-library.html.) Here the F&M students gathered with External Relations Manager Pauline Lemasson and Reference Librarian Abigail Altman:
After working in the Library, we repaired to a nearby restaurant for our weekly Thursday night dinner.
On Friday, Meredith met with Professor Mitchell in the Café Mollien of the Louvre Museum to prepare for leading Tuesday's class on World War I. Our table overlooked the Jardin des Tuileries, which provided an excellent opportunity to review the history of the violent destruction of the Tuileries palace in 1871 at the hands of the revolutionary Communards, about which we just learned in class.
I have been suffering from (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS) for the last four years and had constant outbreaks and pains. During the first year,I had faith in God that i would be healed someday, and i was taking treatments and meds from my doctor. I was taking accyclovir alongside some ointment. I spent so much on meds but the blisters still return after some months. It was early this year, i was using the Internet to see if i could gather any information to get rid of this virus once and for all, using natural herbs. Then i came across a testimony of a woman who was healed from diabetes and Cancer of the breast by one Herbal Dr.yakubu. I copied the email address of the doctor after her testimony. So I sent a message to Dr.yakubu telling him about my Herpes Virus. he told me not to worry that as long as I will make use of the herbs as directed, with God, I will soon testify. I thought he was bluffing. So we got talking and he asked me some questions. He prepared and sent me some herbs in 70ml bottles and ointment, then he guided me on how to use them. In less than 2 months of usage, i was totally healed. The blisters disappeared and the pains gone too. I went for a test and the result was Negative. I had to use a different hospital and the result was same. Since over nine months now, I am Herpes Free.... Please my advise is this, if you have similar sickness or any other sickness at all, Please do not forget to reach out to Dr.yakubu on : (dr.yakubuherbalhealingclinic@gmail.com). you can also reach the doctor on whatsapp +2348057353647
