Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Andrew Bruce Davidson After the death of Heinrich Ewald at Gottingen (May 4, 1875), Professor Davidson evidently had thoughts of giving an introductory lecture at the New College on the great scholar who had been his most inspiring teacher. His intention was not carried out, for what he wrote is a mere fragment, but the opening words will serve well as a preface to the present Memoir. Life,´ he says, ´has not yet been written, and perhaps never will be written. The lives of scholars afford few materials for biographies such as idle people love to read. These are spent in retirement, and though they often contain histories of profound interest, they are in the main mental histories, and few but the men themselves are aware of them; and, knowing that every thinking mind has a history as well as their own, there are but few who consider the vicissitudes of their own inner life of sufficient importance to be made known to the world.
