LIFE OF FREDERICK ROBERTSON[18]

  [18]
  Life and Letters of Frederick W. Robertson. Edited by Stopford A.
  Brooke. Guardian¹, 15th November 1865.

If the proof of a successful exhibition of a strongly marked and original character be that it excites and sustains interest throughout, that our tastes are appealed to and our judgments² called forth⁴ with great strength, that we pass continuously and rapidly, as we read, from deep and genuine admiration⁵ to equally deep and genuine dissent⁶ and disapprobation, that it allows us to combine a general but irresistible⁷ sense of excellence⁸ growing upon us through the book with an under-current of real and honest dislike and blame, then this book in a great measure satisfies the condition of success. It is undeniable that in what it shows us of Mr. Robertson there is much to admire, much to sympathise with, much to touch us, a good deal to instruct us. He is set before us, indeed, by the editor, as the ideal of all that a great Christian⁹ teacher and spiritual guide, all that a brave and wise and high-souled man, may be conceived to be. We cannot quite accept him as an example of such rare and signal achievement; and the fault of the book is the common one of warm-hearted biographers to wind their own feelings and those of their readers too high about their subject; to talk as if their hero's excellences¹⁰ were unknown till he appeared to display them, and to make up for the imperfect impression resulting from actual facts and qualities by insisting with overstrained emphasis on a particular interpretation
