Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters Written by John Chamberlain: During the Reign of Queen Elizabeth The Chamberlain Letters now published are those which were written during the reign of Elizabeth, and, with the exception of a few extracts in Nichols´s Progresses, have not hitherto been printed. The nature of Chamberlain´s Correspondence is so well known from the letters printed in "The Court and Times of James I.," and in other works, that any comment, either upon his style or the general character of his gossipping letters, is wholly superfluous. There are but sixty-two of the Elizabethan Letters, and all but one are addressed to Dudley Carleton; the single exception is a letter (No. LXIX.) which was begun for Carleton, but was afterwards sent to Ralph Winwood, who was then in Paris with him, and was doubtless handed over by Winwood to Carleton, which will explain its apparently solitary appearance. Chamberlain wrote frequently to Winwood during the sojourn of the latter in Paris, during 1601 and 1602, but I find no trace of any of these letters among the State Papers. Although Chamberlain´s letters are extremely numerous, and are entirely made up of personal allusions and references, little has been known of his own individual history.
