Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from That Little Marquis of Brandenburg In the effort to revive the days when Frederick the Great was young, to make the ghosts that haunt that period of history human once more, it is essential that the story contained in the following pages should be true. The materials for this purpose, always plentiful, have of late years been increased by the researches of brilliant men who have had access to the Prussian State archives. The early life of the Great Frederick has thus been dug, as it were, out of the dust-heap of history. The result is a veritable trouvaille. Here is discovered an historical episode in the life of a very great man that needs none of the usual fictitious embellishments to make it an historical romance. To the writer who would use this material little call is made upon his imagination; the situations, the characters, and to a great extent the very words they uttered, are alike found for him. His work is not to invent but to re-create. At the first glance it would seem that this had already been done. When one considers the flood of so-called historical novels with which literature is drenched, it would cause surprise to be told that the figure of Frederick the Great had never been woven into the tapestry of romance.
