Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wisdom and Beauty From Conrad A Careful reader of Mr. Conrad´s novels soon discovers that the author is something more than a born story-teller, although he is that unmistakably, and more than a literary artist, supreme as he is in that role. Apart from Conrad´s genius for making pictures and the atmosphere which fixes them, there is an all-pervading quality which distinguishes him among modern novelists, the quality of wisdom. It does not express itself in superficial flashy epigram, could indeed hardly do so, since it is the outcome of a wide knowledge of human nature, and the philosophy of a man who, like another writer of two thousand years ago, has gone far out on the spokes of the universe, and looked over the "flaming walls of the world." Like the older writer, he has come back perhaps sadder, but infinitely more tolerant of man´s "so mad endeavours."
