Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Talleyrand, Vol. 1 of 2 In May 1892 I was entrusted with the task of reviewing Talleyrand´s Memoirs in the Deutsche Rundschau. His will directed that their publication should be deferred thirty years after his death. This term expired in 1868. Owing to over-anxious scruples, it was prolonged to 1819. the impatience of the public rose with its expectations. Most of Talleyrand´s contemporaries had already told their story, and when at last his turn came, he addressed a generation whose jaded curiosity imagined itself adequately informed as to his public career, and hoped to find indiscretions relating to his private life. In this it was not gratified. The words "Je veux éviter tout ce qui aurait une apparence libellique" precluded, with but few expections, the admission of all frivolous matter into the text of the Memoirs.
