Christoph Martin Wieland : Agathon

'I read a great deal of "Agathon" a very fine German novel taken from a grecian manuscript written by Wieland. It is very interesting and expressed with equal grace, elegance and nature. One thing which shows that no man is free of a vanity in which he seeks to hide is that the Author takes every opportunity to mention himself and appears afraid that "Agathon" should make you forget Weiland'.
