For sheer virility and grip of her verbal instruments it is probably the finest of her works. Some of her sentences have the quality of a sword-edge, and they flash with the rapidity of a practised duellist. It was written at a white heat of indignation yet it is altogether typical of the writer that, in the midst of the work, quite suddenly, she had one of her fits of callousness and morbid temper, and declared she would not go on. With great skill Johnson persuaded her to take it up again and with equal suddenness her eagerness returned, and the book was finished and published before any one else could answer Burke.` Hersteller: Jazzybee Verlag Marke: Jazzybee Verlag EAN: 9783849649746 Kat: Nonbooks/Sozialwissenschaften, Recht, Wirtschaft/Soziologie/Frauenforschung, Geschlechterforschung Lieferzeit: Sofort lieferbar Versandkosten: Ab 20¤ Versandkostenfrei in Deutschland Icon: https://www.inforius-bilder.de/bild/?I=1IMS1dkjwxp02VliZhDEWPY5RNr6d9QdMamGjTfTBA0%3D Bild:
