Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of English Critical Terms The purpose of the following work is to trace the changes of meaning which have taken place in the chief terms employed in English criticism. It is intended to be purely a study in criticism, and not to repeat information which can be obtained from an ordinary dictionary. The organizing idea of the work is found in the grouping of the terms in the Appendix. It is assumed that if the history of two or three of the most important terms of each group is given in full, the history of the synonymous and negative expressions will also have been given, at least as far as their critical and literary significance is concerned. Hence the secondary terms are given but scant notice, and their critical import is to be gathered mostly from the larger terms of their respective groups. The history of the unimportant terms is thus given only in outline. Extensive tables were constructed showing the first use and frequency of occurrence at different times with regard to each critical term.
