Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Specimens of the Choicest Lyrical Productions of the Most Celebrated German Poets: From Klopstock to the Present Time In these Specimens, I offer to the Public, the fruits of several years´ study, and research in the German Literature which is so rich and exhaustless in materials that, although I experienced no embarrassment to obtain subjects for my Collection, yet, I found it a responsible, and difficult task to make an appropriate choice. Modern German Literature abounds with an infinite number of poetical inspirations which, how distinguished soever they may prove, by a Form, more or less brilliant, these effusions are, nevertheless, entirely deficient in true, poetical alloy, for, in our opinion, genuine Poetry consists not in the Form alone, something, more elevated and vivifying is required; the Form is but the aerial drapery whose graceful folds conceal just ideas, and noble sentiments.
