But such personal prcjudices die with
those who hold them. In the clear
white light Of history one who chooses
to look may see the actual character
IA compound of good and evil. like all
the rest of us. The danger that really
threatens from the new fashion of re-
hahilitatiug historic personageS is that
an author who in good faith under
takes such task may become par
tisan and an upolugist. Then the in
fatuated mau assumes that his hero's
acts were justifiable becau,e his hero
performed them. Then every page he
writes sets up false standard of con-
duct, and cunfuses the difference be-
tween right and wrong. The thing to
be borne in mind by both the writer
and the reader Of historical fiction is
that tendency to excuse ill-doing is
not an "amiahle weakness" but fe-
trayal Of principle.
