Transcripts and Studies

Excerpt from Transcripts and Studies

I thank the proprietors and editors of the Fortnightly Review, the Contemporary Review, the Nineteenth Century, and the Cornhitt Magazine for permitting me to republish several articles in this volume. In the article on Victorian Literature I have incorporated a few passages from reviews contributed by me to the Academy. I thank Dr Grosart for permitting me to publish the article Spenser, the Poet and Teacher, which appeared in his privately printed edition of the works of Spenser. I thank Messrs Cassell Co. For permitting me to republish the article on Romeo and Juliet, which appeared as an introduction to that play in their edition cle luwe, illustrated by Mr Frank Dicksee.
