Translated by Arthur Ransom.
A combination of boy's own adventure plus societal utopianism. The inevitably male protagonist manages to fall in love with a woman who is of the special sort capable of abstract thinking:
..."When Clara hinted to me that I was in love with Miss Fox, I laughed at her heartily, and declared that what she took to be symptoms of my passion were merely signs of psychological interest in a woman who was capable of a genuine enthusiasm for abstract ideas."
