Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections From the Writings of Ponsonby Ogle "We die - does it matter when?" - Tennyson. For anyone who knew the writer of the fugitive pieces brought together in this little book, the first feeling, on reading it, will, I think, be one of disappointment. There are men whose individuality shines through their literary work as lamplight through a globe of clear glass: there are others of whom that is not in the least true. And of the latter class Ponsonby Ogle was emphatically one. To say of him "Le style c´est l´homme" would be utterly misleading. The style, in his case, is in no sense the measure of the man. Brilliant though everything was that came from his facile pen - for he could no more be dull on paper than in person - nothing that he wrote could ever convey, to those who knew him not, an adequate sense of the peculiar charm of his personality. And to those who knew and loved him the written word must needs seem but a slight and utterly shortcoming memorial.
