Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from David Garrick Materials for a biography of Garrick overflow. Apart from the mass of letters edited in 1832 by Boaden, in two volumes, under the title of "The Private Correspondence of David Garrick," an immense amount of matter, much of it unedited and unused, is in the Forster Collection at South Kensington. These sources have been laid under contribution. Lives of Garrick have been written by Thomas Davies, the bookseller and actor (London, 2 vols., 1780, reprinted 1780, 1781, 1784, and with notes by Stephen Jones, 1808); by Arthur Murphy, the dramatist (London, 2 vols., 8vo, 1801); by Boaden, prefixed to the correspondence mentioned above; and by Mr. Percy Fitzgerald (London, 2 vols. 8vo, 1868). The last-named life, long out of print, is inaccurate in some details, but is a work of much research and value, to which justice has not been done. What is almost a life is included in Forster´s "Life and Times of Oliver Goldsmith" (London, 2 vols., 8vo, 1877, sixth edition). Shorter lives are in existence in the "Dictionary of National Biography" and elsewhere. The literature and the memoirs of the second half of the last century are full of anecdote concerning Garrick or references to him.
