Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from French Profiles It is characteristic of native criticism that it contemplates, or should contemplate, the products of native literature from the front; that it looks at them, in other words, from a direct and complete point of view. Foreign criticism must not pretend to do this; unless it is satisfied to be a mere echo or repetition, its point of view must be incomplete and indirect, must be that of one who paints a face in profile. In preparing the following side-views of some curious figures in modern French literature, I have attempted to keep two aims prominently before me. I have tried to preserve that attitude of sympathy, of general comprehension, for the lack of which some English criticism of foreign authors has been valueless, because proceeding from a point so far out of focus as to make its whole presentation false; and yet I have remembered that it is a foreigner who takes the portrait, and that he takes it for a foreign audience, and not for a native one.
