Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From Chaucer to Arnold; Types of Literary Art: In Prose and Verse; An Introduction to English Literaturewith Preface and Notes The present volume is the result of long experience in a large school which combines the features of a Latin and an English High School. It illustrates the work in preparation for the study of the great authors, in verse and prose, who have made the most distinctive contribution to English literature and life. When the pupil has gained a general view of the field of English literature, a speaking acquaintance with the authors, and an idea of the principles of literary evolution which this book reveals, he is ready for extended study of those artists whose work is central and formative in each period, the great classics of our literature. While the book is thus intended to be an introduction through types - only a means to the end of forming permanent literary friendships - it is fairly representative of the best to be found in English literary art from Chaucer to Arnold, and hence it has a value of its own. The annotation is confined to the purpose of naturally leading the pupil to look for those principles which are fundamental, such as will guide him into broader fields of literature, history, and criticism - happy pastures in which he may range at will.
