Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Madame De Krudener It is a somewhat curious fact that no life of Mme. de Krudener has ever yet appeared in the English language. Even in the periodical literature of the century her name occurs but rarely, and the articles which profess to deal with the events of her life are, as a rule, both singularly inaccurate in fact, and amazingly prejudiced in tone. No adequate presentment of one of the most striking feminine personalities of modern times was ever offered to the English reading public, until Mr. William Sharp included the earlier of Sainte-Beuve´s delightful portraits of the lady in his recently translated Essays on Men and Women. And even this literary masterpiece only deals with the earlier years of our heroine and with the lighter and more graceful sides of her character. In the French and the German language, on the other hand, there exists an extensive bibliography dealing with every phase of Mme. de Krudener´s career.
