Or Philadelphia., Are abort to publish in two volumes, crown octavo, Memoirs of Anacveon, Translated from the original Greek of Critias of Athens, by Charles Sedley, Esq. in- cluding the Odes of Anacreon, from the vei- sion of Thomas Moore, Esq. Critias of Athens pays a tribute to the legiti- mate gallantrj of Anacreon : Teasgave to Greece her treasure, Sage Anacreon, sage in loving ; Fondly weaving lays t/f pleasure, For the mauls who blush'cl approving. Moore's Anac. p. 298. THE version of the Odes of Anacreon, with which the literary world, has recently been favored, has revived the pleasure which the melody of the lyrist once exeited on the plains of Greece, and extended the reputation, of his translator to every country where clas- sical learning is venerated, and the genuine effusions of the poet find a congenial glow. To the genius and industry of Thomas Moore, Esq_ we are indebted for one of the best translations that English literature pos- sesses, and the liveliest exhibition of Greecian poetry that English literature can boast. The author of the present work is aware that he speaks at a time unpropitious to the fame of Moore. He knows that the indignation of some, and the mortification of others, have been strongly excited by a volume published by him since his visit to this country. But bis translation of Anacreon has no relation to the remarks contained in his " Epistles; Odes, &c." To his brilliant genius, as a poet, and his ability as a translator, repeated editions and reiterated applause b'.-ar ample testimony ; and, by adopting his version -.f Anacreon, the author at once gratifies-'the feelings ol person- al friendship, and pays that tribute of respect, which is so justly due to his unrivalled excel- lence. The design of this work was conceived dur- ing the transient visit which Mr. Moore paid to this city, in the summer of 18iJ4. A bio- graphical sketch of the life of Anacreon, form- ed upon the ingenious plan of the Abbe Bar- theleniy, appeared to the author to be an un- dertaking which offered a fertile source of amusement, and the prosecution of it w;>s embraced with that ardor which is incident to the schemes of a youthful enthusiast. It was communicated to Mr Moore during one of those festive nights, which he has remember- ed in a manner not less honorable tp Himself than grateful to his friends. His approbation was expressed in a manner which vtas prompt, warm, and flattering- But the author did not advert to the impropriety of forsaking that " deep will," which my Lord Coke has dug for his " good sons,'' to wander amid the al- luring bowers of ancient Greece, though ge- nius there bad delighted to hold her seat, and imagination there had whispered her sweetest inspirations. Such considerations, however, did intrude, when the fervor of literary emu- lation bud subsided, and reason resume*! her 3 way. The work was a long time abandoned, snd perhaps never would have been submitted to pubhc inspection, had not the partiality of a few friends nattered the not incredulous au- thor into an opinion, that a continuation would be not wholly unworthy of public perusal.* The author will make no apology for the of- fences he has committed against the regulari- ty of Chronology If laborious comment: tors can gravely and ingeniously dispute whether Sappho danced to the voluptuous cadence of the lyre of Anacreon, or whether an entire century intervened between the periods of their births., he surely may be pardoned, who suffers Anacreon to write an epitaph upon Plato, or criticise the Pcetick of Aristotle. Some of these anachronisms were intention, at, in order to afford suitable topics for the conversation of a scholar, imd others wire the consequence of carelessness; The, work is a fiction, intended to represent ancient manners, and, bj making the Odes o! Anacreon more familiar, t hT.der, if possible, the popularity of a friend more extensile. To Utes» motives, if the cxtsakl add, as it bjjtip- iled, some little admi: ,-Vhey .have ail ih .- can: posed it must be eonoe tore of personal vanity, tftey es which produced tatse Mty a more accurate idea of the nature and plan of the work than, can here be attempted—Vid. p. 247, ko. 1806. april 2o.
