12 MACMILLAN’S CATALOGUE OF WORKS IN “ There is,” according to //^Westminster Review, “probably no other writer now living who could have done the work of this book. . . It would be difficult to point out a book that contains so much fulness of knowledge along with so much freshness ofperception and clearness of presentation.” GOETHE AND MENDELSSOHN (1821—1831). From the German of Dr. Karl Mendelssohn, Son of the Composer, by M. E. Von Glehn. From the Private Diaries and Home- Letters of Mendelssohn, with Poems and Letters of Goethe never before printed. Also with two New and Original Portraits, Fac- similes, and Appendix of Twenty Letters hitherto unpublished. Crown 8vo. 5.5-. This little volume is full of interesting details about Mendelssohn from his twelfth year onwards, and especially of his ultimate and frequent in- tercourse with Goethe. It is an episode of Wiemar’s golden days which we see before us—old age and fame hand in hand with youth in its aspiring efforts ; the aged poet fondling the curls of the little musician and calling to him in play fid and endearing accents ‘‘ to make a little noise for him, and awaken the winged spirits that have so long lain slumbering. ” Here will be found letters and reports of conversations between the two, touching 011 all subjects, human and divine—Music, Aesthetics, Art, Poetry, Science, Morals, and “ the profound and ancient problem of human life,” as well as reminiscences of celebrated men with whom the great composer came in contact. The letters appended give, among other matters, some interesting glimpses into the private life of Her Majesty Queen Victoria and the late Prince Albert. The two well-executed engravings show Mendelssohn as a beautiful boy of twelve years. Guizot.—M. DE BAR ANTE, a Memoir, Biographical and Auto- biographical. By M. Guizot. Translated by the Author of ‘‘John Halifax, Gentleman.” Crown 8vo. 6s. 6d. “ It is scarcely necessary to write a preface to this book. Its lifelike, portrait of a true and great man, painted unconsciously by himself in his letters a7id autobiography, and retouched and completed by the tender hand of his surviving friend—the friend of a lifetime—is sure, I think, to be appreciated in England as it was in France, where it appeared in the Revue de Deux Mondes. Also, I believe every thoughtful mind will enjoy its clear reflections of French and European politics and history for
