Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Sir David Lyndsay, Vol. 1 of 3: With Memoir, Notes and Glossary Sir David Lyndsay has the distinction of being reckoned by general consent the most popular of the early Scottish Poets. Some of his works were undoubtedly circulated during his life in a printed form, but of the existing early impressions, it cannot positively be asserted that any one of them had the advantage of his own superintendence. Henry Charteris, the bookseller in Edinburgh, who at a later period also joined the business of a printer, published the first collected edition of "The Warkis" 1568. On the title it professes to have been "Newlie correctit, and vindicate from the former errouris quhairwith thay war befoir corruptit: and augmentit with sindrie warkis quhilk was not befoir Imprentit." Yet Charteris added merely a few pieces to the minor poems included in the two editions printed in France with the name of Jascuy in 1558, nad in the rival publication in this country from the press of John Scot that immediately followed, without either place, name, or date of printing.
