Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is rooted in a backlash against excessive praise and adulation heaped upon notable individuals. The author argues that the public's tendency to idolize figures like Robert Louis Stevenson and Eugene Field often leads to a distorted and overly idealized portrayal. Using Field as a case study, the book unveils a less familiar side of the celebrated poet, revealing a complex character marked by selfishness, opportunism, and a calculated cultivation of sentimentality for personal gain. Through an exploration of Field's life and work, the author challenges the conventional perception of the man as a paragon of purity and kindness, laying bare the contradictions between his public persona and his private actions. Ultimately, this book invites readers to question the reliability of posthumous reputations and the dangers of uncritical hero worship. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781332910847_0
