Himself a lyrist of distinction, Stefan zweig has accomplished the difficult feat, which in this country still waits to be done, of translating the great mass of Verhaeren's poems into actual and enduring verse.
"Émile Verhaeren"
Stefan Zweig
A friend of zweig before the war, his friend to-day, I have witnessed all that was endured by this free European spirit whom the war robbed of that which he had held most dear; robbed him of his artistic and humanist faith, thereby depriving him of any reason for existence.
"The Forerunners"
Romain Rolland
zweig devotes to Jeremiah a dramatic poem, which I propose to analyse, making extensive quotations.
