Endymion

Endymion is a novel published in 1880 by Benjamin Disraeli the former Conservative Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. The nover was the last novel Disraeli published before his death.The novel is full of political lessons and conceits, and its pictures of aristocratic circles, with the semi-ministerial management of English affairs by the queens of fashionable society on behalf of their Endymions, not only expose the romance of Disraeli's own life, but also reveal the things behind the scenes which, perhaps, none so well could have done as this Jewish ex-premier of England in the literary winding up of his strange eventful life. It is this inner view of Disraeli's novel which gives its real significance.
