Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Allan Ramsay, Vol. 2: With Life of the Author As Ramsay´s fame rests so much on his celebrated pastoral comedy, it deserves particular notice; especially in a work, the chief design of which is to illustrate its scenery. Its other beauties have been zealously and fully pointed out by one who appears to be a scholar and Scottish antiquarian, in ´Remarks on his Writings,´ prefixed to the late edition of his works of 1800, already so often, unavoidably, criticised. The following observations shall principally be directed to its plot and scenery. In addition to the errors already detected, some very unaccountable mistakes as to these are inserted in this edition, which justice and truth require should be rectified. The most groundless and absurd assertions, - unsupported even by any pretensions to a shadow of evidence as to any one fact, - are advanced in it; in opposition to which, nothing shall be stated without proof. A story, to be impressive, must be probable. The characters must coincide in their conduct with experience; and their sentiments must find its echo in every bosom. If nothing is recalled from it by the memory, it cannot raise sympathy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
