Description

Excerpt from Modern Flirtations: A Novel Thus poetry and fiction, when true to the principles of human life, exhibit the mind and soul of man visibly to the senses and history, which has been called the N ewgate Calendar of Kings and Emperors, supplies the facts of human existence, and may be considered a portrait of men's persons and external actions. In writing a story of domestic life, it is singular to reflect how commonly men are remembered by their eccentricities, and loved for their very faults, while the most difficult task in fiction is, to describe amiable persons so as to render them at all interesting and not utterly insipid. Pprobably it may be for this reason that modern writers too frequently, instead of describing the principles which ennoble human nature, and the sentiments which embellish life, have painted in vivid coloring, all that is low, mean, and vicious in society, introducing their readers into scenes.
