 Title:  Note on Edith Wharton, in "Chronicle and Comment"  
 Published:  1996 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text 
 Description: If we were to single out one book from those that have been published this season as exhibiting in the highest degree that rare creative power called literary genius, we should name The Greater Inclination, by Edith Wharton. The book has met with a fair reception in the press, but it does not seem to us that enough emphasis has been laid upon the originality of the work. And not only has Mrs. Wharton brought to these stories a remarkable power of insight and imagination, but the phase of life in America which she has chosen for treatment may be said to be altogether new in her hands. Her work is the more remarkable when we know that the processes by which her results are reached have been gained largely through intuition and sympathy. One would almost imagine in reading these stories that the author must have suffered and gone deep into life in order to bring up from its depths such knowledge of the world as is disclosed in her pages. And yet this is far from being the case. Mrs. Wharton was born little more than thirty years ago in New York. On both sides she comes of old New York stock, her mother being a Rhinelander. Most of her time has been spent between New Greyscale image of Edith Wharton with two dogs, one perched on her right shoulder, the other in her left arm. York and Newport, and she has also lived abroad, especially in Italy, of which country she is very fond. Her husband, Mr. Edward Wharton, is a member of the Philadelphia family of that name, and was married to Miss Edith Jones fully ten years ago. Both are passionately fond of animals, and have been for years the moving spirits in the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Rhode Island. The photograph which we present of Mrs. Wharton with her two pet dogs is the only one that was available for reproduction here, but it is very characteristic when we bear in mind her love of animals. Her first stories began to appear in Scribner's and the Century some years ago; one of them especially, called "Mrs. Manstey's View," published in Scribner's, attracted a great deal of attention at the time of its appearance. She is also the author of a book on domestic architecture and home decoration, published by the Messrs. Scribner, which was reviewed in these pages a year ago last April. A review of The Greater Inclination appears on another page.

 Title:  Squirrel.  
 Published:  1996 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text 
 Description: THE Squirrel lived with his life-long mate near the farm-house. He considered himself very rich, because he owned an English walnut tree. Neither he nor his mate had the least doubt that it belonged to them and not to the Farmer. There were not many like it in the State or the whole country. It was a beautiful tree, with a mighty spread of branches full of gnarled strength. Nearly every year there was a goodly promise of nuts, which never came to anything, so far as the people in the farm-house were concerned. Every summer they looked hopefully at the laden branches, and said to each other, "This year we shall have nuts," but there were never any. They could not understand it. But they were old people; had there been boys in the family it might have been different. Probably they would have solved the mystery. It was simple enough. The Squirrel and his mate considered the nuts as theirs, and appropriated them. They loved nuts; they were their natural sustenance; and through having an unquestioning, though unwitting, belief in Providence, they considered that nuts which grew within their reach were placed there for them as a matter of course. There were the Squirrels, and there were the nuts. No nuts, no Squirrels! The conclusion was obvious to such simple intelligences.

 Description: WHEN we were children our father often worked on the night-shift. Once it was spring-time, and he used to arrive home, black and tired, just as we were downstairs in our night-dresses. Then night met morning face to face, and the contact was not always happy. Perhaps it was painful to my father to see us gaily entering upon the day into which he dragged himself soiled and weary. He didn't like going to bed in the spring morning sunshine.

 Published:  1996

 Description: SUSAN'S impulse was toward the stage. It had become a definite ambition with her, the stronger because Spenser's jealousy and suspicion had forced her to keep it a secret, to pretend to herself that she had no thought but going on indefinitely as his obedient and devoted mistress. The hardiest and best growths are the growths inward—where they have sun and air from without. She had been at the theater several times every week, and had studied the performances at a point of view very different from that of the audience. It was there to be amused; she was there to learn. Spenser and such of his friends as he would let meet her talked plays and acting most of the time. He had forbidden her to have women friends. "Men don't demoralize women; women demoralize each other," was one of his axioms. But such women as she had a bowing acquaintance with were all on the stage—in comic operas or musical farces. She was much alone; that meant many hours every day which could not but be spent by a mind like hers in reading and in thinking. Only those who have observed the difference aloneness makes in mental development, where there is a good mind, can appreciate how rapidly, how broadly, Susan expanded. She read plays more than any other kind of literature. She did not read them casually but was always thinking how they would act. She was soon making in imagination stage scenes out of dramatic chapters in novels as she read. More and more clearly the characters of play and novel took shape and substance before the eyes of her fancy. But the stage was clearly out of the question.
