	Hippolyte Taine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Taine's school, which was one of positivist doctrines, rigid systems and (because of its limitations on the agency given to individuals apart from their circumstances) resigned hopelessness, was equally certain to produce at some time or another a school of determined opponents to its doctrines and system.
		Taine was born at Vouziers, Ardennes, France, the son of Jean Baptiste Taine, an attorney at law.
		Taine is appalled by the bête humaine; and in all his works we are conscious, as in the case of Voltaire, of the terror with which the possibilities of human folly inspire him.

	Race, milieu, and moment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Taine argued that literature was largely the product of the author's environment, and that an analysis of that environment could yield a perfect understanding of the work of literature.
		Taine seems to have drawn heavily on the philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder's ideas of volk (people) and nation in his own concept of race; the Spanish writer Emilia Pardo Bazán has suggested that a crucial predecessor to Taine's idea was the work of Germaine de Staël on the relationship between art and society.
		Taine also influenced a number of nationalist literary movements throughout the world, who used his ideas to argue that their particular countries had a distinct literature and thus a distinct place in literary history.

	Hippolyte Taine
		French critic and historian, the son of Jean Baptiste Taine, an attorney, was born at Vouziers on the 21st of April 1828.
		In the spring of 1841 Taine was sent to Paris, and entered as a boarder at the Institution Mathé, where the pupils attended the classes of the Collège Bourbon.
		In Taine's opinion it was the duty of every man, after the plebiscite of the 10th December, to accept the new state of affairs in silence; but the universities were not only asked for their submission, but also for their approbation.

	Hippolyte Adolphe Taine Biography / Biography of Hippolyte Adolphe Taine Biography
		Hippolyte Taine was born in Vouziers in the Ardennes on April 21, 1828, into a family of civil servants.

		Despite the somewhat mechanical rigor of his mind, Taine had a gift for the telling detail and for imaginative description, and, although some historians have complained that he piles anecdote upon anecdote, he understood very well that, in the case of the Revolution, the devil was truly in the details.
		To Taine’s great credit, he was not taken in by the myth of two revolutions: the British-style reformist revolution of 1789, followed by the Jacobin Terror caused by a few bad men who betrayed the spirit of 1789.
		For Barrès, Hippolyte Taine offered confirmation of his own provincialism, his attachment to the roots of his family and history in Lorraine; he also represented an alternative to the sterile rationality of all internationalisms.

	The Modern Regime, Volume 2 by Hippolyte A. Taine : Arthur's Classic Novels
		Taine had contemplated a completion of his labors by a description of contemporary France, the product of origins scrutinized by him and of which he had traced the formation.
		Taine had sketched it out so far back, he had abandoned it for so long a time and never alluded to it, that nothing remains by which we can form any idea of it.
		Taine believed that the French were very well qualified for this order of study: if any other people possess superior mental faculties in respect of memory or a better knowledge of philology, he thought we had in our favor a superiority of the psychological sense.
