Bag om A Pepysian Garland

A Pepysian Garland: Black Letter Broadside Ballads Of The Years 1595-1639 is a collection of ballads compiled by Samuel Pepys, a famous diarist and collector of English literature. The book includes a selection of black letter broadside ballads, which were popular songs printed on a single sheet of paper and sold on the streets of London during the 16th and 17th centuries. The ballads cover a range of topics, including love, politics, crime, and social issues, and offer a fascinating glimpse into the culture and society of the time. The book includes facsimiles of the original broadsides, as well as transcriptions and annotations by Pepys, providing valuable insights into the language and themes of the ballads. A Pepysian Garland is a valuable resource for scholars of English literature and history, as well as anyone interested in the popular culture of early modern England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
