Excerpt from George Meredith: His Life, Genius Teaching
He added, half seriously, half pleasantly: But they are a kind hearted people They have a heart Their history is truly instructive since the heavy anglo-saxon temperament has commenced to fer ment, thanks to the Norman leaven. Of themselves, the anglo-saxons would have constructed nothing. Excuse my frankness. I am altogether Celtic Welsh on my father's side, and Irish on my mother's. Neither does the Norman possess the fervid temperament; no generosity, and no spontaneous poetry but, despite his lack of imagination, he has great keenness, the gift of command, and of states manship. Really, the Englishman, his intelligence dulled by his wealth, will not awaken unless a German invasion occurs, or a slaughter upon his northern shores.
