Hos C. G. Iversen, st. Kjöbmagergade Nr. 9, ligesor Postgaarden, modtages Subskription paa: The New kketrospective Review. Upwards of thirty years ago a Retrospective Review was established, which had, for some time, great success. Since it was discontinued, the want of a Publication of this kind has been much felt and often complained of, and these complaints partly haveled to the present attempt. If, indeed, the passing literature of the day can surnish materials for so many Reviews as are now established, one surley may be dedicated to the vast field of the literature of the Past. It is our design to select from this field subjects which are most likely to interest modern readers; we shall lay before them, from time to time, Essays on various branches of the literature of former days, English or Foreign; we shall give accounts of rare and-curious Books; point out and bring forward beauties from forgotten writers; and tell the knowledge and the opinions of other days. It is, in fact, intended to comprise copious Critical Analyses of whatever Old Books seem to possess sufficient interest under any of these heads; (the Works of Living Authors will be excluded). In addition to these, one Division of each Part under the head Anecdota Literaria, will be devoted to the Printing, (for the first time) of Short Pieces from inedited Manuscripts, of different periods, preserved in the British Museum, the Bodleian, and other Public or Private Libraries; and another Division will be open to Correspondence on Literary subjects.
