Légende

The late Thomas Campbell, 1844. Marble bust of the Scottish author: 'Scotland gave birth to Thomas Campbell. He was bom at Glasgow in 1777, where he was sent early to school, under Mr. David Alison, who had a method of instruction in the classics purely his own. Campbell began to write verse in his boyhood, and some of his earliest attempts at poetry are yet extant among his friends in Scotland. When twelve years old. he quitted school for the University of Glasgow, where, in Greek, he was the foremost student of his age, and made poetical paraphrases of the most celebrated Greek poets'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
