Description

Wallis, W.D. “American Anthropologist, New Series.” Vol. 14, No. 4 (Oct. - Dec., 1912), pp. 690-691.
W.D. Wallace is writing in remembrance of Andrew Lang. Emphasizing on specific characteristics of the works Lang fabricated. He conjoins attributes of Lang’s personality and maintains an idea that his charisma influenced much of his works as well as his “scientific circles.” Lang was well-versed in each of his topics of physical research, folklore, and the classics of literature. Wallace indeed endorses Lang’s expertise using the term literateur to distinguish his abilities. His portrayal of Lang put his work into perspective, considering how humankind admired such a brilliant soul.


Jacobs, Joseph. “Andrew Lang as Man of Letters and Folk-Lorist.” The Journal of American Folklore, Vol. 26, No. 102 (Oct. - Dec., 1913), pp. 367-372.
Joseph Jacobs argues that Andrew Lang was indeed born “a man of letters” as he envisaged life through literature. Jacobs speculates that despite the fact Lang had a radiant outlook on literature, he failed to reach the highest heights in more imaginative forms of literature due to his journalistic exploits. His viewpoint takes a compelling outlook on Lang’s impression upon the world. Andrew Lang had a sensitive psyche, thus the influence he left of remarkable versatility and omniscience.
