"I know," he said, quietly a little sternly. "Miss Marvell either does not know, or she wilfully misrepresents." "You can't prove it!" "I think I could. And as to that man Mr. Lathrop but you know what I think." They both fell silent.
He seems to believe that the ebullition of this passion forms a sufficient answer to those who say that art should represent life, and that the art which misrepresents life is feeble art and false art. But it appears to me that a little carefuller reasoning from a little closer inspection of the facts would not have brought him to these conclusions.
To the ignorant it misrepresents and dishonors education, when it presents for their judgment a very inferior intellect, which all the training of the schools has not inspired with power, as a specimen of the result of liberal pursuits. Such an intellect can never stand up beside an active though untutored mind untutored in the schools, yet disciplined by the necessities around it.
But as the second version altogether misrepresents the speaker at that moment of his existence, while the first does represent him, how can they for any but a practical or logical purpose be said to have the same sense? Hamlet was well able to "unpack his heart with words," but he will not unpack it with our paraphrases. These considerations apply equally to versification.
Hence he depicts Cato rather than Cicero as the senatorial champion, because his impracticable views seemed to justify Caesar's opposition; he throws into fierce relief the vices of Scaurus who was princeps Senatus; and misrepresents the conduct of Turpilius through a desire to screen Marius. As to his authorities, we find that he gave way to the prevailing tendency to manipulate them.
Whatever be the apparent cost or loss from refusing to lie, it is the apparent cost or loss from refusing to sin. Man, formed in the moral image of God, is so far a representative of God. If a man lies, he misrepresents and dishonors God, and must incur God's disapproval because of his course.
With regard to the origin of the modern treatment of typhoid fever, however, the learned doctor is either misinformed or he misrepresents the facts. The credit for the introduction of hydropathic treatment of typhoid fever does not belong to the "remarkable experiments of the Paris and Vienna schools." These schools and the entire medical profession fought this treatment with might and main.
The world always misrepresents the actions of those who are constantly before it." "It is very true," said Paul; "and I have said the same thing myself a hundred times in 'The Asinaeum, for we were never too lavish of our truths in that magnificent journal. 'T is astonishing what a way we made three ideas go." "You remind me of myself and my newspaper labours," rejoined Augustus Tomlinson.
I know that the ordinary reviewer who either snarls at my work or misrepresents it or ignores it or, again, who pats it sub- contemptuously on the back is as honourably and usefully employed as I am. It is a case of the division of labour and a man will gravitate towards one class of workers or another according as he is built. There is neither higher nor lower about it.
It exaggerates mistakes, misrepresents motives, and combats measures which it believes to be good, if these are brought forward by its opponents. It bullies in public and undermines in secret. It is always ready to step into the shoes of the Ministry, to undergo similar treatment.
