Excerpt from Waldnovellen: Six TalesIn wealth, beauty, and lucidity of diction, Rudolf Baum bach is excelled by none of the foremost contemporary writers of Germany. The rhythmical ¿ow of his language, the cadence of his words, the soothing, luring, coaxing, and caressing concord of sweet sounds charm our ear with their harmonious melody, and lull the reason into slumber. It is, as one of our poet's critics says, a style good enough for a child to dwell upon and become familiar with, and good enough for an adult to relish.Supplemented by copious grammatical and explanatory Notes and a complete Vocabulary, the Woodland Tale: are expected by the Editor to make an excellent and charming first reading book, which advantageously might be put into the hands of beginners at the close of their first, or beginning of the second year of their study in German.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
