Synopsis

Excerpt from Edelsteine: Six Select Stories by Baumbach, Seidel, and Volkmannleander

Each one of these three writers is distinctly the child of the soil from which he sprang. Though the particularism of Germany was for centuries its political curse, it certainly had the tendency to preserve the distinctive characteristics of each section of that country. Personality, however, and fate which nowadays perhaps more than at any other period in the history of mankind dally with the individual, especially in the beginning of his career, as the waves of the ocean play with the yet inexperienced pilot had much to do with the final direction of their characters. But when once the helmsman feels his kinship with the elements, he manages the rudder with a firm hand, guided by confidence born of conscious skill; now his ship safely faces raging waters and threatening storms, and finally rests at anchor in the well-protected harbor.
