Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of Jane Welsh Carlyle I have wished for some years to write about Jane Welsh Carlyle, were it only to echo from my heart the opinions of those who were privileged to know her - those whose eyes were open to her deep, isolated nature, her shining gifts, her unique charm, and her life of pain. My first step was to apply to Mr. Carlyle´s literary executor, Mr. Froude, for permission to avail myself of his exhaustive volumes, without which my task could not possibly have been attempted. This permission was most kindly granted me, and it must be observed that all quotations, passages from letters, &c., in this memoir - unless specially indicated as drawn from other sources - may be referred to Mr. Froude´s pages. I am indebted to Mr. D. G. Ritchie, Fellow and Tutor of Jesus College, Oxford, for valuable aid. Through his courtesy I secured the consent of his publishers, Messrs. Swan Sonnenschein, to use certain passages from the ´Early Letters of Jane Welsh Carlyle.´ He has kindly made the Index to the present volume. Mr. Ritchie also gave me information which resulted in my obtaining access to the hitherto unpublished letters from Mrs. Carlyle to Mrs. Dinning, the ´Grace Rennie´ of the old Haddington days.
