Sybrand Feitama (1694–1758)

Feitama, Sybrand (fī’tä-mä). A Dutch minor poet and critic; born in Amsterdam, Dec. 10, 1694; died there, June 13, 1758. Quite destitute of originality, but of faultless taste, he made his literary verdicts respected; and translated Voltaire’s ‘Henriade,’ Fénelon’s ‘Telemachus,’ and other French plays into Dutch verse.
