This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... Rumor can ope the grave. 'Acquaintance I would have, but when't depends Not on the number, but the choice of friends." This second edition, with an added portion called Sylvia, appeared in 1636, and a third edition in. 1637. Thus, at eighteen he had had better fortune than most poets at fifty. Some of these efforts had been written at a surprisingly early age--C0nstantiu: and Philetus at twelve and Pyramus and Thisbe at ten. And yet how really excellent they are! "After more than two hundred years," says Edmund Gosse, speaking of Pyramus and Thisbe, "it remains still. readable."' The story goes right along with a childlike simplicity, and one cannot help contrasting with it his later more brilliant but laboriously elongated compositions. The child is father of the man, and so we find it in the life of this quiet, meditative poet. "When I was a very young boy at school," says he, "instead of running about on holidays and playing with my fellows, I was wont to steal from them and walk into the fields, either alone with a book or with some one companion, if I could find any of the same temper."" His was just such a nature. He cared lit'tie for the glare and tinsel of the court and seemed never to desire to display himself. Wonderful to relate, during his whole life " he never willingly recited any of his writings."8 Alas, that there are not more Cowleys! But, quiet, modest, widely-read student that he was, he failed in the examination for election to Cambridge in 1636 and had to wait until June, 'Seventeenth Century Studies, p. 114. 7Cowley's 0/ Myself. lSprst's Introduction, Cowley' Poem.. 1637, before he could enter the ancient halls of...

In all six of its volumes The Broadview Anthology of British Literature presents British literature in a truly distinctive light. Fully grounded in sound literary and historical scholarship, the anthology takes a fresh approach to many canonical authors, and includes a wide selection of work by lesser-known writers. The anthology also provides wide-ranging coverage of the worldwide connections of British literature, and it pays attention throughout to issues of race, gender, class, and sexual orientation. It includes comprehensive introductions to each period, providing in each case an overview of the historical and cultural as well as the literary background. It features accessible and engaging headnotes for all authors, extensive explanatory annotations, and an unparalleled number of illustrations and contextual materials. Innovative, authoritative and comprehensive, The Broadview Anthology of British Literature has established itself as a leader in the field. The full anthology comprises six bound volumes, together with an extensive website component; the latter has been edited, annotated, and designed according to the same high standards as the bound book component of the anthology, and is accessible by using the passcode obtained with the purchase of one or more of the bound volumes. For the third edition of this volume a considerable number of changes have been made. Newly prepared, for example, is a substantial selection from Baldassare Castiglione’s The Courtier, presented in Thomas Hoby’s influential early modern English translation. Thomas Kyd’s The Spanish Tragedy is another major addition. Also new to the anthology are excerpts from Thomas Dekker’s plague pamphlets. We have considerably expanded our representation of Elizabeth I’s writings and speeches, as well as providing several more cantos from Edmund Spenser’s Faerie Queene and adding selections from Sir Philip Sidney’s Arcadia. We have broadened our coverage, too, to include substantial selections of Irish, Gaelic Scottish, and Welsh literature. (Perhaps most notable of the numerous authors in this section are two extraordinary Welsh poets, Dafydd ap Gwilym and Gwerful Mechain.) Mary Sidney Herbert’s writings now appear in the bound book instead of on the companion website. Margaret Cavendish, previously included in volume 3 of the full anthology, will now also be included in this volume; we have added a number of her poems, with an emphasis on those with scientific themes. The edition features two new Contexts sections: a sampling of “Tudor and Stuart Humor,” and a section on “Levellers, Diggers, Ranters, and Covenanters.” New materials on emblem books and on manuscript culture have also been added to the “Culture: A Portfolio” contexts section. There are many additions the website component as well—including Thomas Deloney’s Jack of Newbury also published as a stand-alone BABL edition). We are also expanding our online selection of transatlantic material, with the inclusion of writings by John Smith, William Bradford, and Anne Bradstreet.
