Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Manchester Quarterly, Vol. 10: A Journal of Literature and Art When we think of the greatness of Manchester, it is disappointing to remember how little she has contributed to "the best that is known and thought in the world." "What Lancashire thinks to-day, England thinks to-morrow," we proudly say, but this certainly is not true in a literary sense. We produce so little work that is entitled to high rank in literature, we so rarely write a remarkable book, that at times one feels tempted to say: What´s literature to Manchester, or Manchester to literature? Last year, however, there was published in Manchester a modest little volume of very remarkable character, entitled: "Essays in Literature and Ethics. By the Rev. W. A. O´Conor, B.A." Of this little book I venture to say it contains much that belongs to the best that is known and thought in the world on the subjects of which it treats. The subjects treated in this volume of essays are: Browning´s "Childe Roland," Tennyson´s "Palace of Art," "The Prometheus Vinctus," "The Prometheus of Æschylus and of Shelley," "Hamlet," "The Book of Job," "Fables," and "From Lancashire to Land´s End."
