Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book contains a series of letters written between an antiquarian by the name of George Paton, and Joseph Ritson, a notable English literary figure of the 18th century. Paton, an avid researcher of Scottish antiquities, provided Ritson with anecdotes and source material for his work on a compilation of Scottish songs. The letters offer scholarly insights into a broad range of literary topics and personalities, including a lengthy diatribe on the authenticity of the Shakespeare papers, a controversy Ritson himself was intimately involved in. Beyond the exchange of notes about specific literary works, the correspondence also gives revealing glimpses into the relationships between the literati of the time, their methods of research, and the challenges they faced in accessing source material. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
