Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lives of Famous Poets It is due to the reader that I should explain a little of the origin of this book, and its limitations. The series of works named Moxon´s Popular Poets has been before the public for some years past: I began editing it in 1869. Each volume in that series contains a Prefatory Notice written by me - mainly biographical and partly critical. When the issue was completed two or three years ago, some of my acquaintances were so far satisfied with these Notices as to think that they would make a serviceable and readable little volume, if put together in a collected form: the public will decide whether this opinion was right or wrong. For me, as the writer, it was not unnatural to hope that the opinion might prove to be right; and, the publishers having readily assented to my proposal on the subject, on the understanding that seven other lives should be added to those already issued in the several volumes, the present book is the result. The original notices have, in each instance, been carefully revised, and, where necessary, enlarged or modified. The authors re-edited by me in Moxon´s Popular Poets are all of widely diffused reputation. Of most of them the place in our literature is firmly fixed; all of them are constantly read, and by all classes of people.
