Huneker, James, 1860-1921

"Visionaries"

' But apparently this
is only a first impression; for Mr. Huneker had no trouble in
discovering in one cafe a patriarchal figure quite of the type beloved
of the local-color hunters of twenty years ago, a prophet, though
speaking a modern language and concerned with things of the day. So that
we owe to Mr. Huneker the discovery of a notable truth, namely, that
Bohemia is not only a creation of the sentimental memory, but, being
psychological, may be located in clean and prosperous quarters. The
tendency has always been to place it in a golden age, but a tattered and
unswept age. Bohemia is now shown to exist amidst model tenements and
sanitary drinking-cups."
