Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Works of Dr. Thomas Campion When I issued in 1887 the first edition of my anthology Lyrics from Elizabethan Song-books the merits of Thomas Campion still waited recognition. Prof. Arber had included the greater part of his songs in An English Garner, vol. iii., but in 1887 Campion´s admirers were few indeed. By critics and by anthologists he had been persistently neglected. I pleaded that the time had come for him to take his rightful place among our English poets; and the plea was so successful that he now runs the risk of becoming the object of uncritical adulation. In the editio princeps (which I issued in 1889) of his collected works, I included all his Latin poems; but in the present volume I give only his English works - his songs, his masques and his Observations in the Art of English Poesy. The first edition of Campion´s Latin poems (Campiani Poemata, 1595)is exceedingly rare. In 1889 I had not been able to trace a copy. At a later date Mr. W. H. Allnutt informed me that a perfect copy (the only perfect copy known) is in the possession of Viscount Clisden, who has very kindly allowed me to make free use of this precious little volume.
