Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Concerning Lafcadio Hearn There are as many possible biographies of a man as there are possible biographers - and one more! Of Lafcadio Hearn there has been, and there will he, no excuse for any biography whatever. A properly edited volume of his letters, and, perhaps, a critical estimate of the methods and development of his imaginative power and literary character are, and still remain, most desirable. That some competent hand may yet be found to undertake this task is still hoped by those who recognize the value of the man´s best work. To furnish material and help toward this end is my object in collecting the following pages. The life of a literary man interests and is of value to the world because of the literature he has created. Without a bibliography, without even mention of the works he wrote, his biography would be useless. To correct many untrue and misleading statements and inferences of a serious nature that have been published concerning him and his life, should it ever be undertaken, will prove a labor so difficult and thankless that it will scarcely be entered upon by one who would do it rightly.
