Reviews
"In this personal memoir, Rudolph Schevill, one of the founders of Hispanic studies, traces the cultural development of a young American of the late 19th century. In a style notable at once for its spareness and its elegance, he movingly evokes a lost world in which realizing high purpose and striving for intellectual fulfillment remained unquestioned virtues." Herbert Lindenberger, Avalon Foundation Professor of Humanities Emeritus, Stanford University, "Schevill gave the word humanism the only meaning I could accept then and now, that of knowledge learned through action, or erudition blossomed in the act of poetry." -Fernando Alegra, award-winning poet, "Schevill gave the word humanism the only meaning I could accept then and now, that of knowledge learned through action, or erudition blossomed in the act of poetry." -Fernando Alegría, award-winning poet, "Schevill gave the word humanism the only meaning I could accept then and now, that of knowledge learned through action, or erudition blossomed in the act of poetry."
