Connoisseurs of American intellectual culture will take note of the name Grace Norton, recognizing her as the sister of the great 19th century Harvard philologist & professor of Romance languages, Charles Elliot Norton, who as the Cambridge heir of H.W. Longfellow was the translator of the first truly modern, truly accurate English-language Dante (c. 1891) among many other achievements for which he is still honored w/ a prestigious professorship & annual lecture in his name. His sister Grace had many achievements to her credit as well in scholarship & in translation & in her central role in fostering this edition of Montaigne from conception to publication in close collaboration w/ the scandalous scion of the Salem Pickerings, G.B. Ives. * ABOUT THE TRANSLATOR: George Burnham Ives (1856-1930) graduated summa cum laude from Harvard Law School & became the Assistant District Attorney of Essex County (MA). On May 12, 1890, Ives pleaded guilty to charges of embezzlement & forgery, having been caught misappropriating tens of thousands of dollars from various trust funds as well as squandering his wife's inheritance. He was sentenced to 8 1/2 years in Charlestown Prison & was disbarred. While in prison, Ives developed a second career as a translator. After his release, he became a distinguished & prolific literary translator, translating works by Balzac, Daudet, Gautier, Hugo, Maupassant, Mérimée, Sand & Montaigne into English. In later life, Ives produced the first comprehensive bibliography of the works of Oliver Wendell Holmes & worked as an editor at The Atlantic Monthly. * ABOUT THE COMMENTATOR: Grace Norton (b. 1834, d. May 5, 1926) was a noted scholar & lecturer. Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts to Andrew Norton & Catherine Eliot Norton, she was the sister of Charles Eliot Norton. She was educated in Cambridge & read extensively about the literature of France. Norton began studying French authors, chief among them Michel de Montaigne. An expert on Montaigne & the works of other authors, Norton traveled, lectured & wrote about them, her articles appearing in many publications. * SHIPPING: Mnemosyne carefully wraps, labels & packages this splendid set w/ our greatest elegance & care for FREE shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL within the United States & its territories.

".because this possible peril existed, Vice President Nixon and I, in consultation with the Attorney General, prior to my 1956 operation, reduced to memorandum form our understanding as to what would be the Vice President's role in the event of a Presidential disability." - former President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution clarifies the presidential line of succession and eliminates ambiguity about the role of the Vice President. As President Eisenhower noted in his preface, his signed agreement with Vice President Nixon did not have the legal authority to make Nixon the president if Eisenhower had become incapacitated during his surgeries. The death of President Kennedy brought new focus on the presidential line of succession, with legislation for the Twenty-fifth Amendment proposed by Senator Bayh in 1965 and ratified by the states in 1967.
