Publisher's Synopsis
A Dish of Orts is a collection of essays and thoughts by the renowned Scottish author, George MacDonald. The book is a compilation of his various writings, including essays, lectures, and sermons, covering a wide range of topics such as religion, philosophy, literature, and social issues. MacDonald's writing style is known for its depth, insight, and poetic language. He explores complex themes such as the nature of God, the meaning of life, and the importance of love and compassion. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the works of George MacDonald or in exploring the deeper questions of life.Schoppe, the satiric chorus of Jean Paul's romance of Titan, makes his appearance at a certain masked ball, carrying in front of him a glass case, in which the ball is remasked, repeated, and again reflected in a mirror behind, by a set of puppets, ludicrously aping the apery of the courtiers, whose whole life and outward manifestation was but a body-mask mechanically moved with the semblance of real life and action. The court simulates reality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
