Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Johnson: Lives of Milton and Addison The text adopted in this edition of the Lives of Milton and Addison is virtually Johnson´s own, modernised in spelling and punctuation. It seemed inadvisable to follow Cunningham´s method of correcting in the text erroneous dates or quotations, and such corrections have been left to the notes; on the other hand, discussion of variant readings, due to Johnson´s own revision, is foreign to the purpose of an edition intended for schools and colleges. Older names of places - such as Hamburgh (p. 4) and Namptwich (p. 59) - and old forms - such as catched, sunk (p. 91) for sank, sung (p. 58) for sang, and succours (p. 132) - have been retained. Where the difference is only one of spelling, a modern dress has been given to words like musick, alledged, Restauration, atchieved, chusing, visiters, chearful, compleat. Paragraphs, separate in early editions, have been in many cases united to accord with modern usage and logical connection. Three brief omissions, amounting to about four lines in all, have been made, so that the text is considerably fuller than in Matthew Arnold´s edition of the ´Six Chief Lives.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
