Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from James Russell Lowell: A Paper Read at the Eighteenth Annual Dinner, of the Harvard Club of San Francisco, October 22, 1891 "When beggars die there are no cosmets seen; The heavens themselves blaze forth the death of prince." The universal uprising of the intelligent English-speaking world to pay tribute to the eminent worth of James Russell Lowell, who died on the 12th of last August, shows that the judgment of those people has already placed him among the princes of thought. For fifty years he had been known, less or more widely, in the worlds - first of letters, and later of public affairs. He had gained his earliest laurels as an American poet, and his latest as an American diplomat and statesman; and, meantime, he had "won golden opinions from all sorts of people," in turn as poet, satirist, essayist, critic, orator, conversationist, and, always, gentleman. He was born at Elmwood in Cambridge on Washington´s birthday in 1819, and died in the house in which he was born.
