Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Collected Poems of Dora Sigerson Shorter An Introduction to a book wears the sad aspect of an advocate addressing a frigid jury. The foreword should be an afterword, and find its place in an appendix, if anywhere. When we have an Introduction to a volume of poems, reviewers, even modern reviewers, might take it as a plea in apology or for favour. But modern reviewers are indulgent. How great the difference between them and those of the old order is brought to my mind by a criticism in an aged Quarterly Review (not the Quarterly nor the Edinburgh, though they had their merits) of Coleridge´s "Christabel," in which there was the quotation - "´Tis a month before the month of May, And the Spring comes slowly up this way."
