Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A General Sketch of European Literature in the Centuries of Romance ´Had I my way in the teaching of English literature, I would have the student start with a "General Sketch of European Literature," somewhat resembling Mr. Freeman´s General Sketch of European History in its aim and scope and manner of treatment... Such a "General Sketch of European Literature" I would fix once and for all, as an outline map, in the brain of the young student... It is essential that he should know where were the headquarters of literature in each successive period... When Boccaccio is spoken of in connection with Chaucer, when Tasso or Ariosto is spoken of in connection with Spenser, or Boileau in connection with Dryden or Pope, or Goethe in connection with Carlyle, he ought at least to be able to place Boccaccio and Tasso and Ariosto and Boileau and Goethe aright in the general movement of European literature, and in the same measure to conceive aright the relation of each to the literary movement in our own country.´ - E. Dowden. ´Literature enables nations to understand one another.´ - W. Bagehot. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
