Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Andre A Tragedy in Five Acts The Author is aware that with many whose eyes fall upon the title of this book, the attempt and not the deed con founds him. But the consciousness that to whatever faculty for such an undertaking he may possess, he has brought a deep interest in the subject, dating back even to his boyhood, gives him confidence to hope that he may find readers; and amongst them; some who will be attracted rather than repelled by an attempt to contribute something to our legitimate American and National literature. The difficulty of poetic representation, in regard to the most moving and tragical event in our National history, lies mainly in adapting modern and natural language to the necessities of verse, and to preconceived notions of tragic style. It is believed, however, that there is no essential connection between obsolete forms or terminations of words, and impassioned sentiment, and even harmonious expression. Nor do either rhyme or reason forbid that dramatic verse should now approach as near to our spoken language, as it did in the age of Elizabeth to a now obso lete but then familiar diction.

Book Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Western literary study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope, Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others. Experience the birth of the modern novel, or compare the development of language using dictionaries and grammar discourses. ]+++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
