About the Book

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: Art. IV.?History of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, illustrated by original documents. By Frederic vou Raumer. Translated from the German by Lord Francis Egerton. In 2 vols. 8vo. London. 1835. MR. Von Raumer, well known in Germany as a historical writer on many subjects, but most distinguished by his ' History of the House of Hohenstauffen, ' (which we reviewed at some length a few years ago, ) went from Berlin to Paris in March, 1830, on what may be termed a professional tour. He remained sis mouths in that capital, which he principally employed in examining the manuscripts of the ' Bibliotheque Royale.' His main object was to collate original authorities, with a view to those labours on general European history in which he is at present engaged. He found time, however, on his return from his journey, to present the world with two volumes of' Letters from Paris, ' describing his route and pursuits; and with two more of' Letters from the Royal Library, ' forming the work of which Lord Francis Egerton has now executed the translation. The first of these publications is but a series of hasty sketches and loose anecdotes, thrown together, as the author affirms, and we do not doubt sincerely, without the slightest view to the press. We wish, however, that it were in our power to give a slight notice of their contents on the present occasion: for, unless we are much mistaken, they contain, under an unpretending shape and unpolished exterior, a very unusual quantity of sound and shrewd remark. They are written with an energy and heartiness which gives a colouring even to the commonest details; they display, too, the impressions produced on a mind of no ordinary cast; giving, without affectation of any kind, the sentiments of a man devoted to literature and especially to the.
