词汇 godlike daniel
词源
Godlike Daniel. Few if any American politicians have been so idolized as bold blackmaned New England statesman Dan- iel Webster, who was in his lifetime called Godlike Daniel or the Godlike. Noted the Whig magazine back in 1850: “Black Dan, alias the Godlike, as he had been cognomened by his es- pecial admirers, is a sort of intellectual hippopotamus.” A cen- tury later, Senator Webster even defeated the devil in Stephen Vincent Benét’s short story “The Devil and Daniel Webster” (1937), which later became a play and movie. See black daniel.
