Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cardinal Newman: With Notes on the Oxford Movement and Its Men [One of several similar sketches "from memory" and otherwise, made in 1840 and 1841, mostly by undergraduates who were not conscious of the element of caricature inevitable in the work of amateurs. Perhaps a truer idea may be conveyed by a contemporary´s portrait in words. - Ed.] "He was above the middle height, slight and spare. His head was large, his face remarkably like that of Julius Cæsar. The forehead, the shape of the ears and nose were almost the same. The lines of the mouth were very peculiar, and I should say exactly the same. In both men there was an original force of character, which refused to be moulded by circumstances, which was to make its own way, and become a power in the world; a clearness of intellectual perception, a disdain for conventionalities, a temper imperious and wilful, but along with it a most attaching gentleness, sweetness, singleness of heart and purpose. Both were formed by Nature to command others; both had the faculty of attracting to themselves the passionate devotion of their friends and followers." J. A. Froude.
