Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Complete Works of John Lily, Vol. 1: Now for the First Time Collected and Edited From the Earliest Quartos With Life, Bibliography, Essays, Notes, and Index; Life Euphues; The Anatomy of Wyt Entertainments The work here offered to Elizabethan students is the first collected edition of an author whose immense importance to English Literature is beginning to receive a tardy recognition. I hope it may come to seem yet more strange that Lyly should have had to wait so long for his due. The neglect of him is, I think, partly referable to his depreciation by Collier, whose indefatigable and invaluable labours as a bibliographer and collector of facts were not, so far as I have observed, assisted by any commensurate critical or literary gift. Prof. Arber´s excellent reprint (with Introduction) of the text of Euphues was issued in 1868 ; Fairholt´s edition, however inadequate, of the eight acknowledged plays, as early as 1858; while Pappe has appeared obscurely once or twice; and it would be a churlish temper that failed in gratitude to these, who have at least kept Lyly within the ken of readers. We have had, further, essays on Euphuism from Professor Morley in 1861 and Dr. Weymouth in 1871, a chapter on the same subject in Mr, Courthope´s History of Poetry vol. ii, chapters on the connexion of Lyly´s dramatic work with that, of Shakespeare from Mr. J. A. Symond´s and Dr. A. W. Ward, Mr. Sidney Lee´s article in the Dictionary of National Biography and other contributions. But attention to the substance of Lyly´s work and recognition of its literary bearings has been paid first, or chiefly, abroad.
