ESSAYS ON GERMAN LITERATURE. BY
HJALMAR JAR BoyEsEN. New York:
Charles Scribner's Sons.
A careful, painstaking literary artist,
himself Of Germanic stock and in thor
ough sympathy with his subject, Mr.. Boy
essen has here produced al interesting
and valuable volume whose stores of fact
and comment would be rendered even
more valuable by an index, without which
M book nowadays is complete. Mr.. Boye-
sens admir- alton for Goethe leads him
into a rather un-American attitude when
he eDdeavors to excuse or palliate
Goethe's many n shocking love affairs
on the general principle that a few
women more or less don't matter in the
development Of q genius like Goethe's.
This is a superb masculine view
Of the case which this, the woman's
age will hardly indorse. Mr.. Boyesen
treats of the lowering effect on the poets
moral nature of his Illicit relation with
vulgar Christine vulpius, but lightly as
sumes that she did not at least hinder his
development as some one OF the better
women whom he successfully admired
might nave done. The self-absorption
which was Goethe's characteristic as a
man may be pagan" but that doesn't
srove it to have been wise or necessary.
