A Galaxy of FathersHutchinson, 1966 - 256 страница Set against the background of the social history of the eighteenth century, the author gives an account of the lives of five fathers, concentrating upon their influence on their children. Each father was observed closely by his offspring. Charles Burney and Richard Edgeworth left autobiographical material to be completed and edited by their dutiful daughters, George Crabbe's biography was written by his son; in the cases of Thomas Seward and George Mitford, information is derived from private correspondence. |
