Excerpt from Cinna, Ou, la Clémence d'Auguste, Tragédie, 1639: Edited With Notes, Glossary, Etc, By Gustave MassonThe first edition of Cinna was published in 1643 (4to. Pp. -1 102) a duodecimo reprint appeared in the course of the same year. Besides these two editions of the separate play, the following impressions of Corneille's entire works have been collated - 1648, 12mo., 1652, 1amo., 1654, 12m0., 1660, 8vo., 1663, fol., 1664, 8vo., 1668, 12m0., 1682, 1amo. There exists an English translation of the plav by Cibber, London, 1713, 4to. Three German versions, two Dutch, one Italian, and two Spanish (one of these has never yet been published) may also be mentioned. It would be useless to quote here the notices which Mr. Hallam, Lord ]efl'rey, Sir Walter Scott, and other English writers have given of Pierre Corneille, but I must beg leave to tran scribe the following extract from a work for which we are indebted to an author not SO generally known.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
