Washington Irving was the American first man of letters to be known internationally. His works
were received enthusiastically both in England and in the United States. He was, in fact, one of the
most successful writers of his time in either country, delighting a large general public and at the
same time winning the admiration of fellow writers like Scott in Britain and Poe and Tarwthorne
in the United States. The respect in which he was held was partly owing to the man himself, with
his warm friendliness, his good sense, his politeness, his gay spirits, his artistic integrity, his love
of both the old World and the New. Thackeray described Irving as a "gentleman, who, though
himself born in no very high sphere, was most finished, polished, witty; socially the equal of the
most refined Europeans". In England he was granted an honorary degree from Oxford -- an
unusual honor for a citizen of a young, uncultured nation -- and received the medal of the Royal
Society of Literature; America made him ambassador to Spain. Irving's background provides little
to explain his literary achievements. A gifted but delicate child, he had little schooling. He studied
law, but without zeal, and never did practice seriously. He was immune to his strict Presbyterian
home environment, frequenting both social gatherings and the theater.
36. Through the American history, who was the first person whose letters were known
internationally?
A) Scott. C) Irving.
