Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leading American Essayists In the preparation of the present volume, the author has relied almost wholly upon the work of his predecessors. The accounts of Irving, Emerson, Thoreau, and Curtis, in the "American Men of Letters" series, written respectively by Charles Dudley Warner, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Frank B.Sanborn, and Edward Cary, have been found of constant use. In the cases of Irving and Emerson, what may be called the "official" biographies, - the "Life and Letters of Washington Irving," by Pierre M.Irving, and the "Memoirs of Ralph Waldo Emerson," by James Elliot Cabot - have provided the chief part of the material. On the subject of Emerson, further help has been obtained from the recently published "Journals" of his early life, the Carlyle-Emerson correspondence, and the brief biographies by George Willis Cooke, Richard Garnett, George Edward Woodberry, and Frank B. Sanborn. In the case of Thoreau, further help has been obtained from Mrs. Annie Russell Marble´s "Thoreau: His Home, Friends, and Books and HenryS. Salts sketch in the "Great Writers" series.
