Excerpt from Florilegium Latinum: Translations Into Latin Verse, Pre-Victorian Poets
An elaborate defence of the practice of Translation from English Poetry into Latin Verse will hardly be expected from the Editors of such a collection as is here offered: they need not discuss the question which forms the title of Mr Lyttelton's late volume, "Are we to go on with Latin Verses?" The number of recent similar publications, and even of the contributors to the present selection, is an indication that the culture of this branch of classical study is not yet defunct. But though a busy age is prone to study matter rather than form, there is yet room for a pursuit that may help to correct such a tendency, by aiming at perfection of graceful expression and correctness of style.
The distinctive features of this anthology are (1) that the Translations are confined to Latin; (2) that the arrangement of the English passages in Four Parts is generally, though not rigidly, chronological.
