Description

The beautiful tale of "The Monk and the Hangman's Daughter" is a collaboration by G. A. Dantziger and Ambrose Bierce.Dantziger translated the germ of the story from the German of Richard Voss and elaborating upon it, and Mr. Bierce revising the context.Great literary art is shown in the naive story of how the young neophyte unconsciously falls in love with the social pariah, the daughter of the hangman, and the tragic climax of this love is told in a way that will move even the stoic reader.That the same pen which is thrust through "the fools and villains and pretenders" of San Francisco, and which maintains a sustained note of condemnation from the first page to the last in "Black Beetles in Amber," has moved through the pages of "The Monk and the Hangman's Daughter," seems at first sight unbelievable. And yet what is more natural after all than that the mind which extols the modest and flays the arrogant should be all the more capable of appreciating the charm of youth and innocence and purity. For of such a kingdom is Benedicta, the child of the brain of these two writers and the German across the seas-and a more beautiful character has never come into being within the covers of a book.
