Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stories of the Victorian Writers The aim of this little volume is to induce those readers - whether young or old - who are not already familiar with the great Victorians to seek at least a bowing acquaintance with them and their works. With this end in view I have introduced into the narrative as many vivid and amusing stories as I could find, but anecdotes of doubtful authenticity have been avoided. I desire to offer my sincere thanks to Mr S. C.Roberts, who has patiently and skilfully revised my MS. For the anecdotes embodied in the book I am indebted to such biographies as: J. H. Froude, Thomas Carlyle; Sir G. O. Trevelyan, Life of Macaulay; Sir E. T. Cook, Life of Ruskin; W. G. Collingwood, Life and Work of Ruskin; Lord Tennyson, Alfred, Lord Tennyson; Arthur Waugh, Alfred, Lord Tennyson; W. H. Griffin and H. C. Minchin, Life of Robert Browning; J. W. Cross, George Eliot´s Life; J. Forster, Life of Charles Dickens; E. C. Gaskell, Life of Charlotte Brontë.
