Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Some Personal Letters of Herman Melville and a Bibliography "... Herman Melville is undoubtedly an original thinker, and boldly and unreservedly expresses his opinions, often in a way that irresistibly startles and enchains the interest of the reader. He possesses amazing powers of expression; he can be terse, copious, eloquent, brilliant, imaginative, poetical, satirical, pathetic, at will. He is never stupid, never dull; but alas! he is often mystical and unintelligible, not from any inability to express himself, for his writing is pure, manly English, and a child can always understand what he says - but the ablest critic cannot always tell what he really means. ... "Such is Herman Melville! A man of whom America has reason to be proud, with all his faults; and, if he does not eventually rank as one of her greatest giants in literature, it will not be owing to any lack of innate genius, but solely to his own incorrigible perversion of his rare and lofty gifts."
