Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Troubadours and Trouveres: New and Old
The reader of Calendau must begin by dis abusing himself of the idea that the sensations which he received from Mireio are to be pre cisely repeated. Nothing, indeed, is in the nature of things more unlikely than that we shall be twice surprised by the same person, in thexsame way. The curious naivete' of the former tale is abandoned, perhaps deliberately, along with the rather transparent pretence of singing for shepherds and farmer-folk alone. The usual reading public is addressed in Cal endau, and means not wholly unusual are em ployed to excite and detain our interest.
