From Out Of The Past: The Story Of A Meeting In Touraine is a novel written by Emily Howland Hoppin and first published in 1893. The story is set in the French region of Touraine and follows the protagonist, Margaret, as she travels to Europe with her father. Margaret is a young woman who is fascinated by history and art, and she is particularly interested in the Renaissance period. While in Touraine, Margaret meets a mysterious woman named Madame de la Roche, who claims to have lived during the Renaissance and to have known famous artists such as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. Margaret is skeptical at first, but as she spends more time with Madame de la Roche, she begins to believe that the woman may be telling the truth. The novel explores themes of time, memory, and the power of art to transcend time and connect people across centuries. It is a beautifully written and thought-provoking work that will appeal to anyone who loves history, art, and the mysteries of the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
