Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

xvii, [1], 288 p.; front. (port. of Henry Edward Manning); 23 cm. `After the publication in 1895 of the Life of Manning [by Edmund Sheridan Purcell], it was stated by Roman Catholic writers of authority that the Cardinal had intended me to be his biographer. That statement was well- founded. It is useless to revive the controversy which the book aroused. The author, who, in the eyes of those who knew and loved Manning, did him an irreparable wrong, is dead, and was an aged man when he wrote the Life.' (p. 45) -- `Manning had unlickily sturck out from the list of his executors the name of his successor, Herbert Vaughan, whose piety and not impaired a keen intelligence--so he was helpless in the matter. Cardinal Vaughan, some years later sought me out, and in the most handsome terms expressed his regret at what had happened. But it could not be undone.' (p. 46 f.) -- `It was in 1886 that he first spoke of the possibility of my writing his life, and in 1887 that he first wrote to me about it.' (p. 49) -- `He now went further and wrote: "No one will understand me as a man of the world and as a politician better than you, and if you take that side of me I shall have a good and safe biographer. But when it comes to dogmas and canons and censures, on the rule of `set a thief to catch a thief' a priest will be needed. Of all this we can talk."' (p. 50) -- `It was in the spring-time of 1891 when he bade me his last farewell. That day he promised to sit for his portrait for me,no artist havingcaught his likeness since Richmond sketched the handsome Archdeacon of Chichester. The painting was finished just before he died.' (p. 55 f.) and appears as frontispiece to this volume. Good orig. green cloth, spine abraded. Pages lightly foxed.…
