Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Diversions of a Book-Worm, Vol. 1 The Fates have forbidden me to look, to literature as a life-work, and I am content; for if the truth will out, I have always considered this matter as did Washington Irving, cordially agreeing with him that "literature and the elegant arts must grow up side by side with the coarser plants of daily necessity; and must depend for their culture, not on the exclusive devotion of time and wealth, nor the quickening rays of titled patronage, but on hours and seasons snatched from the pursuit of worldly interests by intelligent and public-spirited individuals."
