Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Greek Wit: A Collection of Smart Sayings and Anecdotes, Translated From Greek Prose Writers My little volume of "Greek Wit," though it has been received with mixed praise and blame, yet has met with sufficient success to justify the Publishers in issuing a second series, which was conditionally promised, and which, it is believed, will be found on the whole to contain a better collection of "Sayings" than the former volume. The truth seems to be, that some who had expected, from the title, a "funny" book - a mere collection of light jokes - were a little disappointed. I had taken care to point out the difference between fun and wit, and had also noticed the apparent want of capacity in some persons for really appreciating either the one or the other. To such, of course, books of this kind will always seem more or less dull. There are others who can see the wit or the point of a few anecdotes, but not of the majority.
