Excerpt from Musa Latina Aberdonensis, Vol. 1: Arthur Johnston; The Parerga of 1637
The above series of three volumes would exhibit the Musa Latina Aberdonensis in tolerably complete form, in so far as the secular or non-religious verse is concerned. It would not embrace the sacred poems or translations from the Scriptures emanating from various Of these writers, and particularly from Arthur Johnston. For the inclusion Of these a fourth volume would be required, and the propriety Of such an addition may be left over meantime as a question for the future to determine.
In issuing this volume, the Editor feels regret that at this distance Of time the occasion and purpose Of several Of these poems remain Obscure and undetermined. While he has suc ceeded in unravelling the more important Of the cruces which they present, there are various Of the minor poems to which there is no clue, and, at this distance Of two centuries and a half.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of poems written in the 1630s by Arthur Johnston, a Scottish medical doctor who wrote Latin poetry as a hobby. Many of the poems commemorate famous people of the time and include a significant number that are dedicated to or written about famous Scots. The author was a strong supporter of the Scottish king, Charles I, and includes various poems with a political slant. The poems are a good example of the neo-Latin poetry that was popular during the Renaissance, and include a range of styles and subjects reflecting the author's life experience and humanist education. The poems are of significant interest to anyone curious about the era or the history of Latin poetry. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
