This book was released on 2017-12-25 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Half of the Seventeenth Century A word by way of preface is requisite, if only to explain to the reader, who may take up this volume without recalling its place in a series, why there is no chapter on Spain in a history of European litera ture during the first half of the seventeenth century. The present writer undertook his task on the under standing that the Spanish literature of the epoch was covered by Mr Hannay's chapters in The Later Renaissance. It was explained there that the prin ciple of overlapping, which must be admitted in any attempt to divide European literature into epochs, is specially applicable to the case of Spain; and the six chapters devoted to the literature of Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in that volume preclude the necessity of treatment in this.

Book Synopsis Books and Their Makers During the Middle Agés, Vol. 2 by : Geo Haven Putnam
Download or read book Books and Their Makers During the Middle Agés, Vol. 2 written by Geo Haven Putnam and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Books and Their Makers During the Middle Ages, Vol. 2: A Study of the Conditions of the Production and Distribution of Literature From the Fall of the Roman Empire to the Close of the Seventeenth Century In the general Preface to this work, printed in the first volume, I pointed out that an account of the production and distribution of books for the two centuries immediately succeeding the invention of printing, must, of necessity, be chiefly devoted to the operations of the printer-publishers of the period. During these centuries were produced a number of the great books of the worlds literature, but it was not possible, under the existing conditions, for the authors of these books to influence materially the relations of literature to the State or to the Church. Freedom of speech and even freedom of thought depended very largely upon an untrammelled printing-press, but the authors were able to give but little aid in the arduous task of securing from the political and ecclesiastical authorities the right to multiply books. It is true that the writers of the Reformation period were in a position to render very important cooperation in the work of developing a reading public and in the further work of creating machinery by means of which such public could be reached. But notwithstanding the noteworthy exception presented by the writings from Wittenberg and Geneva, it remains the fact that for the centuries in question, the works of contemporary authors constituted but an inconsiderable proportion of the books published.

Book Synopsis The Literary Relations of England and Germany by : Gilbert Waterhouse
Download or read book The Literary Relations of England and Germany written by Gilbert Waterhouse and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literary Relations of England and Germany: In the Seventeenth Century The present volume is the result of researches prosecuted during my tenure of the Tiarks German Scholarship. My choice of the subject was inspired by Professor Herford's Studies in the Literary Relations of England and Germany in the Sixteenth Century, but when I submitted it to the electors I confess I had little idea of the extent of my task. My main intention was to supplement Professor Herford's chapters where necessary, but I also expected to find sufficient material in connection with the influence of the English drama in Germany and of German hymns in England to occupy my attention for the full period of my tenure. It seemed highly improbable that much evidence of intercourse in any other branch of literature would be forthcoming. My researches had not been long in progress before I discovered that the work of Erich Schmidt, Brie, Ruhl and Bergmeier had placed the old themes beyond need of further supplement. On the other hand, every day brought such additions to my dramatic bibliography that I was soon obliged to omit from my plan all discussion of the dramatic relations of England and Germany, with the exception of those dramas which deal with English or German history. The subject will easily fill another volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Characters From the Histories Memoirs of the Seventeenth Century: With an Essay on the Character and Historical Notes I know that it will bee said by many, That I might have beene more pleasing to the Reader, if I had written the Story of mine owne times; having been permitted to draw water as neare the Well head as another.
