Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tales From Alsace: Or Scenes and Portraits From Life in the Days of the Reformation as Drawn From Old Chronicles Happening to be, some eight or ten years since, at Mul-house, I was enjoying, in the home of my friend Pastor B., the sweetness of that Christian hospitality which the world knoweth not, and of which, were it not ignorant, it would be jealous. One evening my dear friend put into my hands a little pamphlet containing not much more than a printers sheet, saying, ´Do read that! it is the best German tract I ever saw!´ Now, it may be necessary to premise, for some French readers who may not know it, that a tract is usually a short narrative intended to bring out in strong relief some religious truth set in a very simple frame, usually borrowed from real life. That same evening I read the tract of which this volume contains a translation, - ´Master Nicholas.´ I was so much struck by its merit, by the elevated tone of feeling and graceful naïveté which mark it from beginning to end, that I at once promised myself the pleasure of translating it and making it known in France.
