Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Harmony of Birds: A Poem; From the Only Known Copy, Printed by John Wight in the Middle of the Sixteenth Century; With an Introduction and Notes The ensuing tract has been attributed to John Skelton on the authority of Herbert, who was not aware of its existence until after he had published his edition of the "Typographical Antiquities" of Ames. He subsequently saw a copy of it in the hands of Latham, and from Latham it found its way into the library of the late Mr. Heber. Our re-impression is made from a transcript of that copy, for no other is known to be in existence. Whether "A proper new Boke of the Armonye of Byrdes" were really the authorship of Skelton, is a point which we shall probably find considered and determined in the long promised, and, we hope we may now say, speedily forthcoming edition of that author´s multifarious works, under the care of the Rev. Alexander Dyce. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
