Opis: The Story of the Hohenzollern (Classic Reprint) - Jones Charles Sheridan

Excerpt from The Story of the Hohenzollern

One of the most wearisome and pointless of the many pedantries that the heaviness of German Culture imposed on the free spirit of European literature was the habit of beginning the account of some interesting person or phenomenon before and not at the beginning. A biographer was supposed to open the life-story of his hero by noticing the leading traits, not of that worthy himself, but of his great-aunt; these, it was confidently assumed, would go far to explain away any paradoxes of character that the subsequent pages might reveal.
