Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Heroines of George Meredith "Women have us back to the conditions of primitive man, or they shoot us higher than the topmost star. But it is as we please. Let them tell us what we are to them; for us, they are our back and front of life: the poet´s Lesbia, the poet´s Beatrice; ours is the choice. And were it proved that some of the bright things are in the pay of Darkness, with the stamp of his coin on their palms, and that some are the very angels we hear sung of, not the less might we say that they find us out, they have us by our leanings. They are to us what we hold of best or worst within." So wrote George Meredith in The Egoist, in a chapter devoted to the excogitations of that amazing person in an incredible position.
