Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Oliver Goldsmith: A Selection From His Works With an Introduction by E. E. Hale Oliver Goldsmith is read wherever men read English; and, where he is read, he is almost always loved. He died comparatively young. He was but forty-five years old. He had not distinguished himself by any special research. There was no line of literature in which, at that moment, he was confessed to be a master. Men who went to his funeral called him "poor Goldsmith;" and it is most likely that they did not know, that after a century he would be perhaps the best remembered of any of them. Dr. Johnson seems to have surprised those around him, when he said that Goldsmith was a great man. But if to be remembered is any fair test of greatness, Goldsmith has probably as good a right as any of that self-satisfied circle to plead the evidence of after-memory.
