Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Æ (George W. Russell): A Study of a Man and a Nation Standish O´Grady, one fair Sunday in summer, returned home a puzzled and an arrested man. He brought with him the news that he had heard, on the sea-front at Bray, the bearded figure of a young man in a tweed suit addressing the human flood before him, evangelizing (if one may use that word) the ancient pagan gods of Ireland. It was a lone spectacle. The sight of other young men, lit by a later faith and loud with tunes that made up in clamour what they lacked in music, or others more brightly apparelled, with big drums and brass instruments twisted into the likeness of the serpents they fought, and slightly indecent in the matter of past reminiscence, would have been appropriate enough to the scene. They would not have arrested the least incurious. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
