Can banach spaces be taught without introducing the Metric space first?
1
In our curriculum in france we dive head first in the topology of banach spaces probably to set a standing ground for approaching series and sequences of functions,integrable function(includes dependence on a parameter),power series.
and i was wondering whether there was a book that is compatible with our curriculum.

I would say that learning about metric spaces before banach spaces is recommended. Many of the metric space topology results are used when proving theorems about Banach spaces

alright, but which book do you recommend?

What topics are you familiar with? Assuming you are French, and have a solid real analysis background, I recommend "Functional Analysis, Sobolev Spaces and Partial Differential Equations" by Haim Brezis. The author (who is originally French) published a translation in English and it is very good. I am sure the French version is just as good if not better.

Interestingly enough you never need to talk about Cauchy sequences in Banach space theory. eg you can take as defintion of completeness the condition that a space is isomorphic to its bidual via the canonical map.

eh i think there is a misunderstanding,i'm a second year and this is our very first experience into "functional analysis" or whatever it is o.o so far we've only did calculus,some abstract algebra and linear algebra
