Synopsis
Excerpt from Entstehungs-U. Textgeschichte von Landors "Gebir": Inaugural-Dissertation
Landor hatte sich schon auf der Schule und Uni versität als vorzüglicher Lateiner erwiesen; seine lateinischen Verse wurden stets als die besten anerkannt. Als er an die poetische Darstellung des Gebirstoffes ging, schwankte er, ob er das Gedicht lateinisch oder englisch schreiben sollte; einige Stellen verfaßte er erst in lateinischer Sprache. Er schreibt darüber selbst in einem Briefe: It was my practise, as you know from Gebir, to try my hand at both, Latin and English, where I had been contented with any passage in one. In Gebir there are a few which were written first in Latin. In der Vorrede der Ausgabe von 1831 sagt Landor allerdings: Gebir was written in my twentieth year. Many parts were first composed in Latin and I doubted in which language to complete it. Darauf schrieb Landor den ersten Teil des Gedichts in englischer Sprache, verlor jedoch das Manu skript. Als er es nach einigen Monaten wiederfand, vollendete er das Gedicht. Dann erschien es ihm aber zu lang und weitschweifig, und er strich es auf ungefähr die Hälfte zusammen. Spater hat er oft die Befürchtung ausgesprochen, daß er vielleicht gerade das poetisch Wertvollste weggestrichen habe.
