Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Some Literary Associations of East Anglia After reading the interesting study of British genius made by Mr. Havelock Ellis, and finding Norfolk and Suffolk in a fairly assured position at the head of a table of the English counties valued according to their production of men and women of marked intellectual ability, a writer proposing to treat of some of the literary associations of East Anglia is tempted to introduce his subject with some comment on this instructive result of a careful and laborious investigation. Local patriotism, which I hold to be a very good thing, notwithstanding that the bias of it is, in the opinion of Mr. Ellis, "always a sign of intellectual ill-breeding," naturally urges a man to emphasize such intellectual predominance as pertains to his native neighbourhood or homeland, and when it is proved to him that the county of his birth produced during the nineteenth century a larger amount of ability in proportion to the number of its inhabitants than any other county, and that an adjoining county, in which he happens to reside, has, according to Sir Conan Doyle, a "quite phenomenal" record for intellectual productivity, it is hardly surprising if he be strongly inclined to dwell on these facts and make the most of them.
