Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Count Louis Batthyányi the Hero, Prime Minister of Hungary in 1848: And the Life of General Arthur Görgey, the Traitor of Hungary in 1849 By bringing before the American public the two following biographical sketches, our intention is merely to keep alive the generous interest these United States have displayed in the struggle of a heroic nation. We selected two almost opposite characters, the one brought up in the greatest luxury, neglected in education and possessing all the faults of youth, yet dying a hero ;the other receiving with smaller means an excellent education, showing when a mere youth the austerity of a philosopher, despising the showiness of grandeur, yet possessed of an ambition seldom equalled, leaving the scene of public action... a traitor! There are traits in both characters, which call forth the admiration of the reader. Though we may find faults in Count Louis Batthyanyi, when young, they are more than overbalanced in him when in manhood, but it must be said in truth that Görgey´s character, when young, should be the envy of all,- as man we admire him, before his downfall, and wonder how one so gifted could become what the whole world believes him now to be.
