Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Cavalier Songs and Ballads of England From 1642 to 1684 The Cavalier Ballads of England, like the Jacobite Ballads of England and Scotland at a later period, are mines and wealth for the student of the history and social manners of our ancestors. The rude but often beautiful political lyrics of the early days of the Stuarts were far more interesting and important to the people who heard or repeated them, than any similar compositions can be in our time. When the printing press was the mere vehicle of polemics for the educated minority, and when the daily journal was neither a luxury of the poor, a necessity of the rich, nor an appreciable power in the formation and guidance of public opinion, the song and the ballad appealed to the passion, if not the intellect of the masses, and instructed them in all the leading events of the time.
