Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Last Hundred Years of English Literature This book is based on a course of lectures which I read in Jena in the winter of 1864 - 5. I then endeavoured to sketch the history of modern English literature by criticising the works of those poets and novelists who have exercised the greatest influence over it, and pointing out the nature and extent of that influence. I confined myself almost entirely to works of imagination and mentioned none that did not seem to have a permanent value. I now offer those lectures in a modified form to a larger public. Though a great part has been rewritten and the whole carefully revised, this volume still bears, I fear, too many traces of its origin. In the first book I have not mentioned those writers who like Sterne belonged in character to the proceeding period but confined my attention to those who prepared the way for the age of Wordsworth, Byron and Scott. In the last I have left unnoticed those who had not obtained a wide celebrity hefore the year 1860, though the later works of earlier writers will be found mentioned in the proper place.
