Excerpt from Essays on Shakespeare
IT seems almost superfluous here to inform the reader that the author of these Essays on Shakespeare enjoys a wide reputation in Germany for his extensive re searches and studies in the English language and literature, as his name, within the last four years, has repeatedly been brought before the English public. The high estimation in which Dr. Elze is held in his own country is proved by his having been appointed in 1867 Editor of the Yafiréuc/zer of the German Shakespeare Society, which are exclusively devoted to the study of our great poet.
