Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Theophile Gautier The life of Théophile Gautier is of peculiar interest to men of letters, especially to that large proportion of them who, like Théophile, are "polygraphes." Our ancestors more briefly termed them "hacks," and, since Dr. Johnson, or, at least, since Southey, there has been no hack so distinguished as Théophile. His Pegasus was early broken into harness, and his biographer, M. Maxime du Camp, like himself, is constantly regretting this bondage. Perhaps too many laments are uttered over this misfortune; like other men, Théophile Gautier did what he could, and what it was in him to do. He was a poet, indeed, and we are asked to believe that, had the State aided him with an adequate pension, his place as a poet would have been higher, his poetic work greater in bulk, and nobler in quality. But this may well be doubted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
