Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life of Mrs. Elizabeth Carter, With a New Edition of Her Poems, Vol. 2 of 2: Including Some Which Have Never Appeared Before; To Which Are Added, Some Miscellaneous Essays in Prose, Together With Her Notes on the Bible, and Answers to Objections Concerning the Christian Religion These Poems are all corrected from the author´s manuscripts, with their respective dates, and the names of the persons to whom they were addressed, supplied wherever they could be ascertained, which indeed was mostly from Mrs. Carters own communication to the editor. A few notes are added by way of illustration. The Poems which are reprinted from Cave´s edition in 1738, are preserved more as literary curiosities than from their intrinsic merit; in which, though some of them are not deficient, they are very unequal to those which were her later productions. But it should be remembered, that they were all written before Mrs. Carter had attained the age of twenty years, and that they were thought at the time to be extraordinary proofs of early genius. With respect to those which have never before appeared in print, they were selected from among several others, which, having had a cross with a pencil drawn over them, it was supposed her maturer judgment chose to reject.
