Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Robert Southey: The Story of His Life Written in His Letters A short preface will explain the purpose of this volume. It is simply a compilation, but I may be allowed to say that it has not been put together in order to make a book, but to do honour to one of the best men this century has produced. The present generation does not know Southey as he ought to be known, and I hope that this story of his life, written in his own words and linked together with a few editorial hooks and eyes, may be the means of reviving the memory of a great name. The narrative, it is needless to say, can be read at length in the Rev. Cuthbert C. Southey´s Life and correspondence of his father, in six volumes. The four volumes of letters edited by Southey´s son-in-law, the Rev. John Wood Warter, are also of great interest, although Mr. Warter, gleaning after Southey´s biographer, was necessarily more limited in his choice. The admirers of Southey, and every one who wishes to know him intimately, should turn to these records for the minute features of character which my outline portrait will not supply.
