Travels in Scotland (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Travels in Scotland
The object of the translator of the following pages has been, to present the public with a faithful transcript of Mr. Kohl's recent and interesting work on Scotland. Not a single passage has been omitted; and in this anxiety to render his original faithfully, he may, in some instances, have sacrificed elegance of expression to accuracy of detail. To those, however, who are more fastidious about having a full translation than mere style, this may appear of minor importance.
Without entering critically upon the consideration of what a translation ought to be, it will be admitted, that the translator ought, at least, to say what his author has said, as nearly as the nature of two different languages will admit, and give the facts his author has given without alteration or curtailment.
