Opis: Rienzi, the Last of the Tribunes, Vol. 3 of 3 (Classic Reprint) - Lytton Edward Bulwer

Excerpt from Rienzi, the Last of the Tribunes, Vol. 3 of 3

But, in reality, the pause in the action is but to collect, to gather up, and to grasp, all the varieties of circumstance that conduce to the Great Result: and the vulgar art of fiction is only deserted for the nobler fidelity of history. Whoever seeks to place before the world the true representation of a man's life and times, and, enlarging the Dramatic into the Epic, extends his narrative over the vicissitudes of years, will find himself unconsciously, in this, the imitator of Shakspeare. New characters, each conducive to the end - new scenes, each leading to the last, rise before him as he proceeds, sometimes seeming to the reader to delay, even while they advance, the dread catastrophe. The sacrificial procession sweeps along, swelled by new comers, losing many that first joined it; before, at last, the same as a whole, but differing in its components, the crowd reach the fated bourne of the Altar and the Victim!
