Elegant Jeremiahs (Routledge Revivals)The Sage from Carlyle to Mailer【電子書籍】[ George P. Landow ]

   

<p>Labelled "an elegant Jeremiah" by a journalist of his day, the urbane Victorian Matthew Arnold must have received the comparison with the Old Testament prophet uneasily. Writing in the 1970s, Norman Mailer seems to owe nothing to the biblical for his description of a long hot wait to buy a cold drink while reporting on the first voyage to the moon.
