Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Julie De Lespinasse One summer afternoon in the year 1811 Madame de Stael was returning from an excursion down the Chambery valley, when the failing conversation of her party drifted to a recent book of which the reputation was already in the ascendant. Talk suddenly became animated. Madame de Stael was the first to take fire, and her brilliant words held all hearers by their charm. A storm broke over the carriage, but neither for wind, hail, nor lightning had any of its occupants attention to spare. One subject possessed every sense - the volume of Letters of Mademoiselle de Lespinasse which the widow of Count Guibert had given to the world a few months earlier. The anecdote may serve in some degree to indicate the profound interest excited in the literary world, almost from the moment of their first publication, by pages that revived, as it were gave a second life to, the soul of a woman dead these thirty years and whose name was scarcely known to the new generation. Little less than a complete century has since passed, but the accents of this voice from the grave are still to be heard.
