Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From Canadian Poets: With Occasional Critical and Biographical Notes, and an Introduction Essay on Canadian Poetry My object in compiling this volume has been to rescue from oblivion some of the floating pieces of Canadian authorship worthy of preservation in a more permanent form; and to direct the attention of my fellow-countrymen to the claims of Canadian poetry. The fact that I entered on an untrodden path, without any way-marks to guide me, necessarily caused me a vast amount of labor, and an extensive correspondence; as, in many instances, both poets and poetry had to be discovered by special research. This will, I hope, be duly considered by readers in judging of the work, should it be found less perfect than they had anticipated. As I do not wish to be judged by a wrong standard, I must remind my readers that this is not "a work on the Poets and Poetry of Canada." Such a-work may be highly desirable and necessary; and there is valuable material, in the poetic effusions of the past fifty years, with which to enrich such a work. But this collection makes no pretension to such a character: it is simply "Selections from Canadian Poets." With the hope of enhancing the interest and usefulness of the work, I have subjoined occasional brief notes; but the plan and scope of the work precluded any lengthy biographical sketches.
