Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Adventures of George Augustus Sala, Vol. 2 It was shortly after the death of the Prince Consort that I became aware of the presence of a new leading article writer in the columns of the Daily Telegraph. Members of the staff of great daily papers do not, as a rule, see much of one another. I had my own room at the office; and although I occasionally met Horace St. John, I never conferred with him on journalistic matters. With respect to the articles I was to write I saw only my editor, Mr. J. M. Levy, or his son Edward. I was most forcibly impressed by the style of the new leader-writer; replete as it was with refined scholarship, with eloquent diction, and with an Oriental exuberance of epithets. Some of the leaders - giving expression to the universal feeling of sympathy for, and condolence with, Her Majesty in her bitter bereavement - struck me as being about the most pathetic utterances in poetic prose that I had ever read. But it was the Eastern aroma of these articles which most attracted my attention and excited my admiration.
