Excerpt from Scandinavian Literature: With Short Chronological Specimens of the Old Danish, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, and a Notice of the Dalecarlian and Ferroe Dialects This is a very brief sketch of the language and literature of Scandinavia, taken from the introduction to the author's anglo-saxon Dictionary. F mm the old Danish (danska tunga), Normna or Icelandic tongue, sprung the modern Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, and those languages and dialects spoken from Greenland to Finland, from the Frozen Ocean to the Eideri. While it must be acknowledged, that a class of lan guages thus extensive deserves attention, Scandinavian literature has a peculiar claim from its singular poetry and mythology, given in the Eddas. Those who wish to enter more deeply into the subject than the limited space would here allow, may consult the authorities quoted in the fol lowing work. If they would see the northern poets in an elegant poetic dress, they will be much gratified by perusing Miscellaneous Poetry, and Select Icelandic Poetry, translated from the originals, with notes by the Honorable William Herbert, London, 1804, 2vols. 8vo. 168. Popular Ballads and Songs from tradition, manuscripts, and scarce editions, with translations of similar pieces from the ancient Danish language, &c. By R. J ameisou, m.a., Edinburgh, 1806, 2 vols. Gm. 213. Illustrations of Northern Antiquities, by Sir Walter Scott, R. Jameison, m.a., f.r.s and Mr. Weber, Edinburgh, 1814, 1 vol. 4to. 31. 38.

Excerpt from The Gospels: Gothic, Anglo-Saxon, Wycliffe and Tyndale Versions; Arranged in Parallel Columns With Preface and NotesThe Scriptures contain the revelation of God's will to man, - God's word addressed to all mankind. As the Scriptures are Truth, the closer we adhere to them, the nearer we are to Truth. But the nearest ap proach we can make to the inspired originals, is in faithful translations, as they express the sense with the greatest brevity and precision. Hence good translations afford the best helps for obtaining a true knowledge of the Scriptures, and different versions, by learned and religious men, must be the best and shortest commentaries. The same truths are there expressed in different words. Where some are too brief and obscure, others may be more full and clear, while together, being the same in sense, they mutually illustrate and confirm each other.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
