Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Robert Burns, Vol. 4 A few words of preface may be expected from the Editor in entering upon the second division of his twofold undertaking, as announced in the Prospectus to this "Library Edition of Burns." The complete writings of the author were to be presented in six volumes - one half of these to contain his Poems and Songs, arranged according to date of composition; and the remaining three volumes to comprise his Letters and other Prose productions, similarly arranged. These twin-sections, it was promised, would exhibit the bard as his own biographer, giving two parallel recitals of the shifting drama of his life - the one, in poetry and song, and the other, in his own powerful prose. The favourable notices by the public press, of the volumes already issued, encourage the hope that the execution of branch second of this undertaking will be no less appreciated. Dr Currie, taking a hint from Boswell´s Johnson, hazarded the "experiment" of engaging the public interest by committing to the press about one hundred and twenty letters of Bums - "the recent and unpremeditated effusions of a man of genius."
