Der Werth dieses Romans beruht auf künstlicher Verwendung historischer Studien in welchen sich der Verfasser schon durch seine Bilder aus dem Mittelalter" als Meister bewährt hat.. Es ist dem Verfasser gelungen nicht nur in seinen Haupthelden, sondern auch in vielen Nebenfiguren lebendige Gestalten zu schaffen, die ihre Existenz behaupten werden." -Dr. Karl Klüpfel in Lit. Weg. 1870-74.

"Der Verfasser zeigt uns in diesem Werke ein Bild aus dem deutchen Gelehrtenleben. Ein junger Professor der Philologie sucht mit leidenschaftlicher Beharrlichkeit eine alte Handschrift des Tacitus, deren Spur er zu haben glaubt... Vieles Einzelne ist in dem Buche

ganz unübertrefflich ausgeführt, aber in der Oekonomie des Ganzen nimmt doch die gelehrte Marotte mit dem Suchen nach der verlorenen Handschrift eine über Gebühr wichtige Stelle ein."-Dr. Karl Klüpfel, Lit.

"Proposes to show the success of certain persons who, under the inspiration of the Four Mottoes, do their best to live hopeful, unselfish, and progressive lives."-Lit. World.

"Mrs. Merriam's scholars is one of Mr. Hale's most characteristic stories, warm, rapid, real, dramatic, and interesting. It is on the old but never worn-out theme, personal influence. The story is mainly of the negro schools in the South and their Northern teachers just before the close of the war, and the lawlessness, chivalry, and heroism of that time are vividly sketched. It is the second of the Ten Times One' series."-Bost. D. Advert.

"Eine Art von roman comique, leicht, graziös und voll mit Ernst gemischten Scherzes. hat vielleicht seinen grössten Werth als Psychologie einer ganzen bedeutenden Stadt (München) und als Portrait der gesellschaftlichen und künstlerischen Zustände derselben." -Dr. Georg Brandes, Deutsche Rundschau.

Contents: Count Ernest's home. The dead lake. The fury (L'arrabiata). Judith Stern. "Four love stories of the Rhine, Tyrol, Sorrento, Dresden; . . . . Noticeable for simple, pure, forcible style. Author born in Berlin, 1830-still living; wrote In Paradise,' The children of the world,' etc."-T. Slip R.

"Heyse's stories have always a certain charm of freshness and actuality, the world seems wide and life various as one reads. The beauty of lake, wood and sea is vividly and simply indicated, and, above all, in his shorter stories his theories find less place, though they are sufficiently suggested."-N. Y. Nation.
