FLAXIUS, OR LEAVES FROM THE LIFE OF AN IMMORTAL[1](1/ "tree and pragmatics")

<!-- .verse -->
BY CHARLES GODFREY LELAND, F.R.S.L., A.M. (Harvard) &c.[2](2/ "tree and pragmatics")

Published by P. WELLBY, LONDON.[3](3/ "tree and pragmatics")

“It is not so much the spirit of Breitmann which animates these pages as that of Pantagruel.[4](4/ "tree and pragmatics") From the President of the United States, Roosevelt, he goes to Hamlet and resolves to visit Hades.[5](5/ "tree and pragmatics") The tale of Flaxius and the Were-wolf is a brilliant narrative....[6](6/ "tree and pragmatics") Flaxius breaks a lance for Jezebel and also for Herodias with graceful impartiality.[7](7/ "tree and pragmatics") The chapter on the Bookseller is among the most charming in the work....[8](8/ "tree and pragmatics") It is quite certain that many readers will welcome Flaxius as a philosopher seeking \_la vraie verité\_, a philosopher whose sympathy is very human, and who has in spite of all his erudition ... something of the naïve spontaneous pen of his Teutonic rival, Hans Breitmann.”[9](9/ "tree and pragmatics")

Condensed from a review of 150 lines in the \_London Academy\_.[10](10/ "tree and pragmatics")

“The prose which is nearly all the book is a continued delight and surprise in its humorous ideas, as well as in its more pitiful and thoughtful moods.”[11](11/ "tree and pragmatics") “The whole is a literary entertainment of a rare and delicate kind.[12](12/ "tree and pragmatics") Truly it is one of the daintiest, quaintest, most frolicsome, and at the same time most spiritual of \_jeux d’esprit\_.”--The (London) \_Free Lance\_.[13](13/ "tree and pragmatics")

“An extremely pleasant and agreeable book....[14](14/ "tree and pragmatics") No one who cares for curious customs presented in a quaint and entrancing manner will miss ‘Flaxius: Leaves from the Life of an Immortal.’”--\_Pall Mall Gazette.[15](15/ "tree and pragmatics")

Transcriber’s Note:[16](16/ "tree and pragmatics")

Words and phrases in italics are surrounded by underscores, \_like this\_.[17](17/ "tree and pragmatics") Chapter and Canto headings, printed in gothic font, are surrounded by equal signs, =like this=.[18](18/ "tree and pragmatics") Letters that have both an accent and macron are shown within brackets, like this: \[´ē\].[19](19/ "tree and pragmatics") Words may have inconsistent hyphenation and use of diacriticals.[20](20/ "tree and pragmatics")

Footnotes were renumbered sequentially; except for the Glossary, footnotes were moved to the end of the chapter.[21](21/ "tree and pragmatics") Partially printed punctuation and diacriticals were completed.[22](22/ "tree and pragmatics") Misspelled words were not corrected.[23](23/ "tree and pragmatics") The word ‘a’ was added to ‘... in a pickle ...’[24](24/ "tree and pragmatics") In the Appendix, the English translation was moved to follow the related section of Native language.[25](25/ "tree and pragmatics")
