THE
REBELLION IN THE CEVENNES,
AN HISTORICAL NOVEL
IN TWO VOLUMES.
BY LUDWIG TIECK.
TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY
MADAME BURETTE.
VOL. I.
LONDON:
D. NUTT, FLEET STREET.
DUBLIN: J. CUMMING.--EDINBURGH: BELL AND BRADFUTE.
1845.
PREFACE.
A predilection for the productions of TIECK and a desire to introduce
this remarkable work of the great German Poet to a larger circle of the
reading world: were the chief inducements, on the part of the
translator, for causing it to appear in an English form. As far as
regards the manner in which the translation itself has been executed,
the writer will be allowed to affirm, that the original has been, in
every sense, as closely adhered to, as the idiom of the English
language would admit of; to say, however, whether those efforts have
been attended with any corresponding success, must be humbly left to
the judgment of the discerning critic.
