Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Anti-Slavery Papers, Vol. 1 of 2 One of the most interesting chapters of Mr. Scudder´s admirable ´Life´ of Lowell is that which recounts Lowell´s part in the Abolition movement. The part was not a conspicuous one, and might easily be lost sight of in a career crowded as Lowell´s was with distinguished activities. All the more easily might his prose contributions to the columns of the Anti-slavery press be overlooked. He himself did not value them highly, counting his poems his chief service to the cause, and the papers have remained uncollected until now brought together in these two volumes. Yet during the seven years of Lowell´s association with the Abolition movement, it had no more brilliant advocacy than he gave it in the contributions which appeared usually unsigned save for the initials J. R. L. They were brief, often fragmentary, frequently taking their text from themes of passing interest, and can hardly heighten Lowell´s literary reputation.
