Synopsis:
Probably there are few who to-day question the pro priety Of publishing the love-letters Of eminent persons a generation after the deaths Of both parties to the correspondence. When one recalls the published love letters Of Abelard, Of Dorothy Osborne, Of Lady Hamil ton, Of Mary Wollstonecraft, Of Margaret Fuller, Of George Sand, Bismarck, Shelley, Victor Hugo, Edgar Allan Poe, and - to mention only one more illustrious example - Of the Brownings, one must needs look upon this form Of presenting biographical material as a well established, if not a valuable, convention Of letters.
