Excerpt from Wit, Wisdom, and Philosophy of Jean Paul Fred; Richter

The works of Jean Paul Richter are very little read in America. To the majority, even of educated men, he is only a famous name. Thought treasuries and books of quotations abound with his wise and pungent sayings, and from these sources he is often quoted. The books from which they come are little known. One reason for this is to be found in the fact which Carlyle alleges - that probably there is not in any modern lan guage so intricate a writer. The compiler of this vol ume believes that there are many well-informed people who cannot find time for the laborious task of reading this voluminous author, and yet who would gladly know more about a man whose fame has spread so widely through the world, and whose works are conceded to be classic.

The editor believes that he has done the reading pub lic a valuable service in carefully studying the works of Jean Paul, and selecting out of so much that goes almost unread the gems of thought and brilliant analects that no one can afford not to read. This labor itself has been to him a source of great enjoyment and profit. Ameri can readers need to get a larger taste of the inimitable Jean Paul, whereupon it will not be surprising if his works are in increased demand.
