Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life of Anna Jameson: Author of ´Sacred Legendary Art´ &C It is perhaps desirable that I should explain how it is that I have been induced to gather together, from materials long put aside, the following Memoir of my aunt, Mrs. Jameson, - a thing which was not thought of at the time of her death, now nearly eighteen years ago, chiefly because of her own dislike to the idea of having he private life and the facts connected therewith paraded before the world. This repugnance on her part was naturally at the moment entirely consented to by her friends, to whom, in their early grief for her loss, all her wishes were very sacred. As time went on, however, it was impossible not to regret the want of some modest record of her existence and her work, among the many biographies daily issuing from the press, of her contemporaries; and the idea had often been suggested to me by friends, and had arisen in my own mind, to make her readers of the present generation in some degree acquainted with her personally.
