Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Manual of English Literature Whether a German by birth and education may venture to write a History of English Literature in English, I must leave to my English-speaking friends in England and America to decide. My intention in writing this Manual was to produce a book which might serve as a guide through the maze of English Literature to German and English students alike. In the interest of the former I have tried to spare them all unnecessary detail, concentrating my attention on the most important poets and leaders of thought, and showing, at the same time, the intimate connection of literature and political history. For my English-speaking readers it may be interesting to see what standard a foreigner who has for more than forty years either lived in England itself or lovingly and gratefully devoted his leisure hours in Germany to the study of English history and literature, applies to the representative men in the literature of the Anglo-Saxon Race which undoubtedly stands foremost - may I say shoulder to shoulder with Germany? - in the great battle for light and progress which will decide the future destinies of Mankind.
