Studies in Literature (Classic Reprint) by Frederick M. Tisdel Pdf

Excerpt from Studies in Literature Part II consists of a brief survey of English literature with assigned readings from the literature itself. Much study about authors whose books the student has never read is of doubt ful utility. A wiser plan is to use a very brief account of the literature in connection with a considerable amount of reading in the literature itself arranged chronologically. In studying Part II, therefore, emphasis should be placed upon the sug gested readings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Short Studies in Literature (Classic Reprint) by Hamilton Wright Mabie Pdf

Excerpt from Short Studies in Literature That these brief chapters may prove helpful to readers of books who desire to become students of literature, is the hope which the writer ventures to cherish in the face of defects more obvious to him than to the most unsympathetic critic. These Studies are not critical but interpretative they are neither exhaustive nor inclusive; they are mainly hints and suggestions. Each chapter might be elaborated into a volume. If they serve to indi cate the leading lines of literary development, the fundamental divisions and distinctions, the deep and vital tendencies, they will accomplish the end for which they were written. That they represent deep convictions concerning the significance of literature rather than a purely critical attitude, will be apparent to the most indifferent reader. The writer is glad of an Opportunity of putting forth what he trusts may be, to some readers at least, a book of insight, rather than a contribution to the.

Studies in Foreign Literature (Classic Reprint) by Virginia M. Crawford Pdf

Excerpt from Studies in Foreign Literature It is impossible not to believe in the existence of some absolute standard of taste, some unerring criterion by which the good and the bad in art may be appraised. For the critic, as for the theologian, some dogmatic basis which it were impious to undermine would appear to be a necessity. Yet when we seek for the evidence of such a standard in practical criticism, it would seem to be nonexistent. I know of nothing so arbitrary and illogical as the criticisms on art and literature which appear in the daily papers, save only the still wilder freaks perpetrated by untrammelled public opinion. Who can explain why Marie Corelli, whom even the critics are agreed in accepting as the type of all that is unliterary and meretricious, should command a large scale for her novels than any living English writer?

Literary Studies (Classic Reprint) by Charles Whibley Pdf

Excerpt from Literary Studies HE chroniclers and antiquaries of the Tudor period, various as they were in style and talent, shared the same sentiment, the same ambition. There breathed in each one of them the spirit of nationality. They recognised that the most brilliant discovery of a brilliant age was the discovery of their own country. With a full voice and a fervent heart they sang the praise of England. They celebrated with what eloquence they possessed her gracious climate, her fruitful soil, her brave men, and her beautiful women. Both by precept and by example they did honour to their native speech. Our English tongue, ' said Camden, 'is as fluent as the Latin, as courteous as the Spanish, as Court - like as the French, and as amorous as the Italian.' Camden praised by precept alone, and composed all his works, save one, in Latin. The other chroniclers, discarding Latin and writing in their own English, paid the lan guage a far higher tribute - the tribute of example.

New Literary Values by David Daiches Pdf

Excerpt from New Literary Values: Studies in Modern Literature This is not to say that no criticism is good which does not take the form of philosophical investiga tion, but that such investigation must precede any further discussion. Criticism must assume a stable standard of values and constant points of reference, and the discovery of these must be made by each critic for himself. Otherwise there cannot even be an intelligent handling of vocabulary. What can the critic do with such words as aesthetic, form, ideal, significant, unless he has satisfied himself about their meaning by his own investigations? How often do we see quite un defined terms flung about loosely in critical writing which passes for profound! Definition of terms is no simple matter it is not the beginning of a thought-process but the end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Literary Studies From the Great British Authors (Classic Reprint) by H. H. Morgan Pdf

Excerpt from Literary Studies From the Great British Authors The design of this book is to encourage an acquaintance with the masters of English Literature. To this end the compiler has attempted to present specimens which fairly represent the versatility of the authors, and which illustrate the peculiarities of their several styles. It is, of course, impossible to present dramas, epics, histories, and essays in their entirety, but wher ever possible the endeavor has been made to offer some entire poem of the writer. It is hoped that any student of any age may be enabled by the use of this book to begin an acquaint ance with the authors, and be led by his interest to use the Index as direction for further reading. An attempt has been made to present authorized texts and through the Glossary to supply such explanations as are not accessible through Webster's Unabridged; on the other hand, it has been considered injurious to explain what the student may easily ascertain for himself without access to any library, but a dictionary. The compiler has, in his capacity of instructor, been made very familiar with What is ordinarily attainable with young students, and has been guided in his selections and glossary by this experience. In the case of writers like Swift, Shelley, and Byron, certain characteristic selections are excluded by the fact that coarseness, immature views, and sensuality should not be emphasized even when among the qualities of an author.

Studies in English Literature (Classic Reprint) by John Dennis Pdf

Excerpt from Studies in English Literature The chapters in this volume are to some extent reprints; but several of them are considerably eu larged, and some are so changed in substance and form as to present an original aspect. The ground work of the essay on Pope, republished by the courtesy of Messrs. Longmans, is to be found in Fraser's Magazine; but the author has also made use, with the permission of the proprietors, of several papers on the same subject printed in the Pall Mall Gazette and in the Athenwum. Thanks are due to the editors of the Spectator, for authority to insert the Wesley article; and to Messrs. Smith, Elder, and Cc., for the use of the remaining essays.

Familiar Studies of Men and Books (Classic Reprint) by Robert Louis Stevenson Pdf

Excerpt from Familiar Studies of Men and Books In truth, these are but the readings of a literary va grant. One book led to another, one study to another. The first was published with trepidation. Since no bones were broken, the second was launched with greater confidence. So, by insensible degrees, a young man of our generation acquires, in his own eyes, a kind of roving judicial commission through the ages; and, having once escaped the perils of the Freemans and the Furnivalls, sets himself up to right the wrongs of uni versal history and criticism. Now, it is one thing to write with enjoyment on a subject while the story is hot in your mind from recent reading, coloured with recent prejudice; and it is quite another business to put these writings coldly forth again in a bound volume. We are most of us attached to our opinions; that is one of the natural affections of which we hear so much in youth; but few of us are altogether free from paralysing doubts and scruples. For my part, I have a small idea of the degree of accuracy possible to man, and I feel sure these studies teem with error. One and all were writ ten with genuine interest in the subject; many, how ever, have been conceived and finished with imperfect knowledge; and all have lain, from beginning to end, under the disadvantages inherent in this style of writing.

Studies in Literature by Arthur Quiller-Couch Pdf

Excerpt from Studies in Literature: Second Series The First of these 'studies' was originally read before an audience at the University College of Nottingham, inaugurating ac 'Byron Lectureship.' All the others were delivered as lectures in the New Arts Schools at Cambridge. In the preface to a former volume I admitted that the word 'studies' might well seem ill-descriptive;and gave half a promise to justify the title better in this its successor. I am well aware that this half-promise is not kept in the following pages. It was given in the latter days of the War, when few of us felt able to hope that our then deserted Colleges would fill again in our time; when some of us prophesied an end for ourselves of sad retirement in the shade of libraries; when none of us, I will swear, anticipated what was to come upon us, as it were in a tidal wave - the amazing, portentous, refluence of youth into the Universities. It came; and it was such that we could scarcely have coped with it, even if prepared. I for one, at any rate, had to revert hastily to the old method of familiar discourse if the hungry generations were not to tread me down. I must offer my apologies to the reader for the result, but my thanks to Heaven for the cause. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Judith Studies in Metre, Language and Style by T. Gregory Foster Pdf

Excerpt from Judith Studies in Metre, Language and Style: With a View to Determining the Date of the Oldenglish Fragment and the Home of Its Author Scanty as the remains of Old English poetry are yet scantier still is the information concerning them that con temporary and immediately following ages have left us. Of the authors, their lives and works, as well as of the exact times in which they worked and flourished, we know next to nothing. With two or three names of poets and some few notions of the subjects of their singing, historians of the literature of the Old English period have had to conjure. These generalities can have no better illustration than is afforded by the critical history of the epic fragment 'judith'. To deal carefully with the various questions that arise from a study of this fragment is the object of the pages that follow; it will be best introduced by a review of the most important contributions to the subject by previous scholars and critics.

New Studies in Literature (Classic Reprint) by Edward Dowden Pdf

Excerpt from New Studies in Literature These studies, chosen from a larger number which appeared during a series of years in The Fortnightly Review, are reprinted with the permission of the proprietors of that periodical. The portion of the volume which deals with Goethe is derived from an examination of Goethe's mind and art, to which I gave much time and pains, but which still remains incomplete. So much new material has recently come to light, so much awaits publication, and so great has been the industry of German scholars, that delay seemed advisable. Certain fragments of my study were thrown into the shape of addresses delivered as President of the English Goethe Society; one - that on Goethe's friendship with Schiller - was read before the Manchester Goethe Society. The article on "Literary Criticism in France" was given as one - I believe the first - of the recently established Taylorian lectures at Oxford.
