Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Journal, Published With the Consent of the Family: Translated With an Introd, by William M. Linghtbody It was only in 1862, fourteen years after Eugenie de Guerin´s death, that her Journal was first given to the world. Since then it has achieved a wide popularity in France, and has taken a recognised place in modern literature beside the works of her gifted but unfortunate brother Maurice. Written originally without any thought of publication, it has the merits,, and, it may be said, the faults of such a method of composition. The frank simplicity and intimate tone have a peculiar charm that we miss in most personal narratives intended for the outer world; whilst, on the other hand, some of the matter seems somewhat trivial at times, and there is a tendency to repetition. We shall find in the book little in the way of episode or reminiscences of celebrities; but it possesses a supreme interest as the story of a woman´s heart. It tells of her love for her brother, her grief at his death, her religious aspirations, sketches of her home life, her impressions of nature, all touched with a tender fancy and exquisite literary style.
