Excerpt from Oberon's Vision: In the Midsummer-Night's DreamAmong the biographical details which ensue, that portion which treats Of the family and connexions of our great Poet - and particularly the maternal branch - will not, however digressive, be unacceptable to his admirers. Its object is to rescue their memory from the deroga tory treatment it has hitherto experienced at the hands of biographers and critics, and to restore them to a rank and respectability to which, as they frequently urged their claims, I conceive them to be justly entitled. The tragical fate, also, of our poet's kinsman, resulting out of the transaction which forms the main subject of our inquiry, is now for the first time noticed in connection with his history, and is as important to the critic as it is interesting to the biographer.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
