Publisher's Synopsis

The Phenix: A Collection of Old and Rare Fragments is a book compiled by William Gowan and originally published in 1835. The book is a collection of various literary fragments from the past, including poems, essays, and other writings. Many of the fragments are from medieval and early modern literature, and some are from ancient Greek and Roman works. The book contains a wide range of literary styles and genres, from epic poetry to religious texts. The title of the book comes from the mythical bird, the phoenix, which was said to rise from the ashes of its own destruction. The fragments in the book are similarly rare and valuable, having survived the passage of time and the destruction of many other works. The Phenix provides readers with a glimpse into the literary past and offers a unique perspective on the history of literature.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.
