Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Decadence and Other Essays on the Culture of Ideas When, more than ten years ago, I wrote the first article on Remy de Gourmont which, so far as I know, appeared in America - North America, bien entendu, for the author of La Culture des Idtes and Le Chemin de Velours was already well known and admired in such South American literary capitals as Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, and La Plata - it was refused by one editor on the ground that he could not assume the responsibility of presenting a writer of Gourmont´s dangerous, subversive, and immoral tendencies to the readers of his conservative and highly respectable journal. Gourmont´s revenge - and mine - came a few years later when, at the time of his death, in 1915, the same paper paid him editorial tribute, recognizing the importance of the place he had occupied in the intellectual life of France for a quarter of a century. What was this place precisely? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
