Excerpt from A Song of Italy We have but re-echoed the judgment of all competent critics, in saying that Swinburne rightfully ranks with the few great poets of this and Of other ages. His present work is one oi the finest artistic efforts which we have ever chanced to encounter. It has more human interest than his 'atalanta in Calydon, ' while it is couched in the same vigorous and splendid diction and 'is richly dight' with melodious and sweetly magnificent songs. His portraiture is one of the amplest, most thoroughly elaborated, and most gorgeously coloured, in the whole wide range of British poetry - Nsw Yoxx weekly review, December 9th, 1865.

Excerpt from Fable and Song in Italy The aim of this little volume is twofold. First, to trace out some of the influences acting on the more popular forms of Italian song; and secondly, to offer to English readers, in the shape of translated extracts, specimens of Italian poets whose works difficulties of language have hitherto rendered inaccessible to the general public. In carrying out the first part of my programme, I have specially dwelt in the early chapters on the survival of classical myths in popular tradition, and on their trans formation and modification at the hands of minstrels and poets. As Boiardo is the great exemplar, among the more polished bards, of this species of assimilation, I have illustrated it by following out some of the episodes in which he has thus blended antique and mediaeval mythology, so as to present them in consecutive and intelligible form. It is only in this fashion that the chivalric epic can be rendered readable to contempo raries, since its prolixity and discursiveness make it wearisome to pursue continuously as a whole. Its ori ginal composition for piecemeal recitation places it in a totally different category from modern literature, addressed primarily to the mind through the eye. In the chapters on Giusti and Manzoni I have tried to emphasise their position as the two great influences on the growth of modern Italian, the one through his verse, the other through his prose, the unapproached and unapproachable masterpieces of their respective spheres of art. My second object has been in the selection of passages for translation, to Open up as far as possible new ground, choosing works that have not as yet been naturalised in English literature. Since there is no version of the Orlando Innamorato in our language, I have drawn largely on it for passages illustrative of my subject, especially as its beauties are, even in Italian, disguised by the obsoleteness of the language, and it has therefore the less to lose in the change of dress. In my selections from Ariosto, again, I have borrowed more extensively from his sparkling verse-letters than from his better known Orlando Furioso, since the latter is available in a very adequate English translation.

Excerpt from Masters of Italian Music No one who ventures to write about modern Italian music can hope to avoid a certain element of monotony. At the present time, and indeed for many years past, music in Italy has meant Opera, and Opera alone. The vast majority of Italian composers devote their best energies to this peculiarly national form of art, while those who cultivate its other branches constitute a minority so insignificant as scarcely to be worthy of mention. In France and Germany Opera has divided honours with Orchestral Music and Oratorio. In Italy it has reigned supreme. In England, except at a few favoured moments, Opera has always been an exotic. At the present time, as a national form of art it is practically non-existent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Some Forerunners of Italian Opera The study of the character and performance of the first Italian secular drama, the Orfeo of Poliziano, unquestionably a lyric work, is the result of some years of labor. The author believes that What he has to offer on this topic will be found to possess historical value. The subsequent development of the lyric drama under the combined influences of polyphonic secular composition and the growing Italian taste for luxurious spectacle has been narrated at some length, because the author believes that the reformatory movement of the F lorentines was the out come of dissatisfaction With musical condi tions brought about as much by indulgence of the appetite for the purely sensuous elements in music as by blind adherence to the restrictive laws of ecclesiastic counter point.
