The Protege: A Poem (1859)

By William Bausman

Book Overview

The Protege: A Poem is a literary work written by William Bausman and published in 1859. The book is a narrative poem that tells the story of a young artist named Protege who is taken under the wing of a wealthy and influential patron. The patron provides Protege with the resources and opportunities to develop his artistic talent, but as Protege grows more successful, he becomes increasingly arrogant and ungrateful towards his benefactor. The poem explores themes of ambition, loyalty, and the corrupting influence of power. With vivid imagery and lyrical language, Bausman's work is a thought-provoking meditation on the nature of artistic genius and the responsibilities that come with success.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
