Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from Word Portraits Character Sketches of Famous Men and Women The extraordinary in?uence and power of Maximilian Harden s pen are very largely due to the fact that throughout his brilliant career as an essayist and publicist he has always held aloof from all political party phraseology, to his absolute fearlessness in the expression of his opinions, and to his ready and poignant wit. An extraordinarily well-read scholar - in many languages and on most subjects - his style of composition, a marshalling of long rows of cc-ordinated sentences, bristling with quotations from the classics of all nations and replete with quaint similia, makes delightful reading in the original German. The attempt, however, to reproduce in English the author s peculiarly intricate and highly ornate verbal structure may cause a somewhat stilted effect on the eye and the ear of those attuned to a terser form of descriptive prose.
