February 18, 1915 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about the book titled, Dictionary of Madame de Sévigné, written by Edward FitzGerald. The book has been edited and annoted by Mary Eleanor FitzGerald Kerrich. If the mechanical construction of the book, leaves something to be desired, the substance of it is of great interest and owes no small part of its value to the editorial additions. The sketches themselves vary much in length and entertainment. Some are brief notes, with perhaps a bit of pertinent quotation; others, are delightful little essays, turned with the sensitive ease that is always characteristic of FitzGerald's prose.
