Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pollok Aytoun At first sight it may seem as if the two men, Pollok and Aytoun, were so widely opposed in all things as not to admit of the inclusion of their biographies within the same cover. Widely opposed they were, in their positions, their ideals, and their teachings; and yet a few points remain in common. Both were Scottish, each being representative of a strongly national type: both were poets: both belonged to the nineteenth century: both were Blackwood men, Aytoun being one of the Blackwood coterie, and Pollok one of the writers discovered by Blackwood, - and discovered by the very men, "Christopher North" and "Delta," who were afterwards Aytoun´s colleagues and friends. Here the likenesses end; but the diversities between the two poets form a picturesque contrast. One was a rustic, a Calvinist, a Covenanter: the other was of gentle birth, an Episcopalian, a Jacobite. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
