Excerpt from The History of the Swedes It has been the aim of the present translator, in essaying an English version of the only work deserving to be regarded as the standard of Swedish history, to present a faithful and accurate image of the style of the original; to render as exactly as possible every shade of meaning and variety of diction. A translation should be close without stiffness, free and spirited without paraphrastic license. Whether these objects have been attained in the present case it is for others to determine. I by no means assent to a theory often maintained, which supposes true translation to be impossible, because nice distinctions of meaning, and still more idiomatic forms of expression, are necessarily evanescent, and leave but a caput mortuum to mock the toil of conversion. Believe it to be possible to reproduce in our language a just presentment of any prose composition in another; and to transfuse the ideas in similar diction with out loss of force or grace. If the attempt fail, it must be ascribed not to its impracticability, but to an imperfect command of the resources of the English tongue in the individuah With the noblest and most comprehensive of modern languages as our instrument, it must be possible to find, even in the most difficult cases, (of course those springing from some radical difference in the things symbolized are excepted, ) expressions of equivalent significancy, and more or less identical in the verbal meaning. Some changes of collocation and structure must be permitted. Whenever doubt was felt as to the true sense of the original, recurrence has been had to the Ger man version which, though containing many minor inaccuracies 5, avoided in the following pages, fulfils by its general fidelity and vigour of style all the essentials of a translation. In some passages of the Swedish original variations from the German are observable, apparently proceeding from the author's own pen; in these the former has been followed. The notes, it will be seen, are numerous; but they are never necessary to the text, and should be regarded, like those of Gibbon, in the light of corroborative matter, which may be read or not at pleasure. A few turning on minute topographical or technical points (chiefly in Chapters II. And X.) have been omitted or abridged, as possessing only domestic in terest; those supplied by the translator are brief explanations of points on which many English readers might possibly feel at a loss. It was originally intended to give a map of Scandinavia; but the idea was abandoned, because maps are now-a-days easily procured, and maps of Germany, Poland, and Russia would have been scarcely less necessary.

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.
