Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Ballad Book: A Selection of the Choicest Old Ballads This little Book is intended to present, for the delight of lovers of poetry, some fourscore of the best Old Ballads in at once the best and the most authentic attainable form. But let it be understood at the beginning, that in most cases the authority, if it deserve the name at all, for the text of an old ballad, is of an obscure and evasive kind; and the more scrutiny, the less assurance. To not many of the poems in this book could even an approximate date he affixed, and to not one the author´s name. Ballad, ballata, is originally a song sung in dancing (ballando), or perhaps intermixed with dances. II. "The Old Ballads" suggests as distinct a set of impressions as the name of Shakespeare, Spenser, or Chaucer; but on looking close we find ourselves puzzled; the sharp bounding lines disappear; the mountain chain so de¿nite on the horizon is found to be a disunited and intricate region.
