BOYESEN.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen I was requested to furnish a dramatic biography of Mr. Howells, I\u003cbr\u003ewas confronted with what seemed an insuperable difficulty. The more I\u003cbr\u003ethought of William Dean Howells, the less dramatic did he seem to me.\u003cbr\u003eThe only way that occurred to me of introducing a dramatic element\u003cbr\u003einto our proposed interview was for me to assault him with tongue or\u003cbr\u003epen, in the hope that he might take energetic measures to resent my\u003cbr\u003eintrusion; but as, notwithstanding his unvarying kindness to me, and\u003cbr\u003emany unforgotten benefits, I cherished only the friendliest feelings\u003cbr\u003efor him, I could not persuade myself to procure dramatic interest at\u003cbr\u003esuch a price.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy second objection, I am bound to confess, arose from my own sense of\u003cbr\u003edignity which rebelled against the _rôle_ of an interviewer, and it\u003cbr\u003ewas not until my conscience was made easy on this point that I agreed\u003cbr\u003eto undertake the present article. I was reminded that it was an\u003cbr\u003eancient and highly dignified form of literature I was about to revive;\u003cbr\u003eand that my precedent was to be sought not in the modern newspaper\u003cbr\u003einterview, but in the Platonic dialogue.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079515914480,"sku":"2940013616516","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013616516_p0.jpg?v=1763583465","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013616516","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
