Preface to the second edition
In this new edition the text has been thoroughly revised and brought up to date.
Writers who should have been discussed in the first edition, but were not, have
been included. Jacob Geel now has, I hope, his rightful place, as have Piet
Paaltjens, Herman Heijermans, Nescio and others.
I express my sincere thanks to Professor Peter King of the University of Hull for
his helpful criticism of the first edition. I am particularly grateful to Mr.
Paul Vincent, Lecturer in Dutch at Bedford College, University of London, for
many valuable suggestions.
London, February 1978
