Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Criticism on Milton The text of the present edition is based upon the professedly literal reprints by Arber and Morley. I use the word professedly because, notwithstanding that they are supposed to have faithfully copied the same original, these two editors not seldom disagree, as a glance at my foot-notes will show. Perhaps we may save their credit by assuming that there were trifling variations between different copies belonging to the same edition. By record ing the differences noted I have sought to assign a limit to possible error in the text, and to place the reader in a position to form his own judgment in doubtful cases.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milton This man cuts us all out, and the Ancients too, Dryden is reported to have said. But this man intended to do no less, and formally announced his intention. It is impossible to outface Milton, or to abash him with praise. His most enthusiastic eulogists are compelled merely to echo the remarks of his earliest and greatest critic, himself. Yet with all this, none of the later critics, not the most cavalier nor the dullest, has dared to call him vain. His estimate of himself, offered as simple fact, has been accepted in the same spirit, and one abyss of ineptitude still yawns for the heroic folly, or the clownish courage, of the New Criticism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetical Works of John Milton, Vol. 1 of 2: English and Latin, Edited, With a Bibliographical Introduction, Life of Milton, and an Analysis of Addison's Criticism on Paradise Lost The Aldine Milton in the original series was edited by the Rev. John Mitford just sixty years ago, in three volumes, with a somewhat lengthy Life, and with a few footnotes to the poems.

Notes have been dispensed with, and the work thereby produced in a more convenient form in two volumes; and a student can go for his notes either to some of the editions referred to in the Introduction or to specially annotated Selections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Milton: An Essay The Essay on Milton consists of a short account of the discovery and contents of the Christian Doctrine (pp. 1 a criticism of Milton's poems (pp. 4 and a defence of Milton's public conduct (pp. 30 In the course of the essay many of those literary and political problems are discussed which do not admit of a final solution, and to which each generation finds a somewhat different answer. Herein lies one of the chief educational merits of the essay; the student must be prepared throughout to think for himself and form his own conclusions, and it is scarcely necessary to add that, in order to do so, he should study for himself at any rate those portions of Milton's poems which are immediately under consideration. An endeavour is made in the notes to lighten this work by means of references and quota tions, but nothing can take the place of independent reading on the part of the student.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of John Milton Lives by this popular author, except what are borrowed from Addison's criticism on the great Epic Poem. Immediately after Johnson's death, Thomas War ton published his edition of the Juvenile Poems.' In the preface and notes he scattered many anti dotes to Johnson's poison, which restored the minds of the lovers of true poetry to their proper tone: but it had not much effect with the multi tude, who resolved to nurse the tasteless dogmas which seemed to justify their own insensibility. The Wartons were men of the romantic school of poetry, which had gone out of fashion from the introduction of the French school at the restore tion of Charles II. The days of chivalry were gone and the picturesque requires a nicety of eye and brightness of fancy, which are not the endowments of the many.

It is but recently that Dryden has had his high rank, as a Writer of Prose, acknowleged; and no great number of years has passed arvay since the Earl of Orrery, in a publication, which had its season of reputation, told his Son, that he would find the prosaical works of milton more nervous than elegant; more distinguished by the strength of reason than by the rules of rhetoric: '4 jhis di'ction isharsh, his periods tedious and, when he becomes 'a prose Writer, the majesty that attends his poetry vanishes, and is entirely lost yet, With' all'his faults, and exc'l'usrve of this Cha.

Book Synopsis Johnson's Lives of the Poets by : Samuel Johnson
Download or read book Johnson's Lives of the Poets written by Samuel Johnson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-19 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Johnson's Lives of the Poets: Milton; Edited With Notes, Etc In the opinion of Macaulay the best of the Lives are those of Cowley, Dryden, and Pope, and the worst is that of Gray. The comparative inferiority of the Life of Milton is not owing to Johnson's defective knowledge of his subject. Certain errors of fact the life of course does contain. In some cases later enquiry has disproved statements received as true when Johnson wrote. The investigations of the genealogists of the present century have superseded his account of Milton's family and pedigree. The researches of Professor Masson amongst the State-papers have revealed the exact history of Milton's Latin secretaryship. The publication of Milton's 'treatise of Christian Doctrine has thrown new light on the development of his religious opinions. There are however other cases in which Johnson has fallen into error through negligence. He attributes to Ellwood instead of to Phillips the statement that Milton could not endure to hear Paradise Regained' judged in ferior to Paradise Lost, ' and expands that statement into the assertion that the poet preferred Paradise Regained' to Paradise Lost.' On another occasion he refers to Phillips a's authority for a statement which is made by Birch. He carelessly writes of Milton as making the ten books of Paradise Lost' into twelve by the division of the seventh and twelfth. He misdates one of Milton's works, and appears to confound two of his pamphlets into one. These are trifling slips, the great defect of Johnson's life of Milton is the persistent depreciation of the poet's character which pervades it throughout. At the time, and ever since.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milton: Poetry Prose Three important factors of the long debate are repre sented by the essays in this book. The first is a famous document of the academic criticism of the eighteenth century. The second is in the manner of the imaginative submission which restored so much of our literary heritage in the romantic era. The third was the earliest and best of the critical estimates written for the Reviews. Some what deficient, as all Macaulay's work is, in analytic power, it abounded in good observations, and its fervid panegyric proclaimed his political sympathy with Milton's creed.

Book Synopsis Milton's Paradise Lost by : Albert S. Cook
Download or read book Milton's Paradise Lost written by Albert S. Cook and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milton's Paradise Lost: Book I and II The purpose of this edition is to promote the enjoyment of Milton's poetry through study of a selection which, by its excellence of every sort, will reward prolonged attention. Through study, not through mere reading; for the editor does not share the opinion of those who hold that the study of the best literature is fatal to enjoyment. 'All men, ' says Aristotle - and we shall hardly find a more competent judge - 'all men by nature desire to know.' If the appetite for knowledge is inborn in every human being, study, which is the process of acquiring knowledge, can only be distasteful when it has artificially been rendered so. There are those who concede this in general, who yet make an exception of literature; but it is difficult to see why the highest form of expression of which the human soul is capable should less repay study by enjoyment than the grass of the field or the rocks of the mine. On this point I am glad to find myself in substantial accord with that veteran and universally respected teacher of English, Professor March, of Lafayette College. He believes, as I also do, in the more rapid reading of certain books, especially during the elementary stages of an English course, according to a method that he suggests in The Independent for August 4, 1892.
