설명

The binding thread throughout this edited collection of Ambrose Bierces letters is the argument that Bierce has been too often vilified as a cynical misanthrope. Joshi and Schultz believe that Bierces human side has been ignored by scholars and they work here to rectify this oversight. The importance of this collection is underscored by the fact that no collection of Bierces letters has been published since 1922. This selection represents a sampling of nearly onehalf million words of Bierces correspondence which Joshi and Schultz are the first to gather and transcribe. The letters reveal many sides of Bierce that he deliberately concealed in his literary work the caring father who keenly felt the deaths of his two sons and took constant interest in the welfare of his only daughter the literary giant of San Francisco who gathered around him a substantial cadre of disciples whose work he encouraged and meticulously criticized the vigorous castigator of chicanery hypocrisy and injustice whenever he saw it and the author of coyly flirtatious letters to a number of female correspondents. For the first time a wellrounded picture of Bierce the man and writer emerges in his own words. The volume ends chillingly with Bierces last surviving letter written from Chihuahua Mexico on December 26 1913 which concludes As for me I leave here tomorrow for an unknown destination. Bierce was never heard from again. The letters have been scrupulously edited from manuscript sources and exhaustively annotated to elucidate obscure historical literary and other references. S. T. Joshi is an author and editor living in New York City. He most recently edited The Collected Fables of Ambrose Bierce. David Schultz is a technical writer who coedited The Unabridged Devils Dictionary with S. T. Joshi.
