Publisher's Synopsis

""Janus: Or The Edinburgh Literary Almanac"" is a book written by J. G. Lockhart and originally published in 1826. It is a collection of literary essays, reviews, and articles covering a wide range of topics, including poetry, drama, fiction, and history. The book was published during the Romantic period and reflects the literary and cultural trends of the time. The title ""Janus"" refers to the Roman god of beginnings and transitions, who is often depicted with two faces looking in opposite directions, symbolizing the duality of past and future. The book is considered a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Romantic literature and provides insight into the literary scene of Edinburgh during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
