Book Description
Excerpt from Mauprat The fire is, fortunately, so much stronger than the tears that her passion never degenerates into the maud lin. All the same, she makes too universal a use of her own strongest gifts, and this is why she cannot be said to excel as a portrait painter. One merit, however, is certain: if her earliest writings were dan gerons, it was because of her wonderful power of ideal ization, not because she filled her pages with the re volting and epicene sensuality of the new Italian, French, and English schools. Intellectual viciousness was not her failing, and she never made the modern mistake of confusing indecency with vigour. She loved nature, air, and light too well and too truly to go very far wrong in her imaginations. It may indeed be im possible for many of us to accept all her social and political views; they have no bearing, fortunately, on the quality of her literary art; they have to be con sidered under a different aspect. In politics, her judg ment, as displayed in the letters to Mazzini, was pro found. Her correspondence with Flaubert shows us a capacity for stanch, unblemished friendship uh equalled, probably, in the biographies, whether pub lished or unpublished, of the remarkable.
