Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Affairs of Some Famous Men The problem of the union of man and woman must always remain the supreme and central question of society; and this book is a small contribution to its elucidation. There is a greater desire just now to have details about celebrated men than to become acquainted with and understand their work. Shelley´s amours, for instance, are known to many who have never read even his "Ode to the Skylark." We hope that we are not pandering to this love of gossip by perpetrating a treatise on the love affairs of some famous men. This depends upon the spirit in which it was written, which, we trust, was that of Bolingbroke, who said of Marlborough, when some one spoke of his avarice, "He was so great a man that I forgot he had that defect." If I were to say that all love affairs not quite proper have been omitted, my book would be little read. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
