Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes and Heroines of Fiction Roughly speaking, the year 1500 forms the line of cleavage between this volume and its predecessor bearing the subtitle, Modem Prose and Poetry. But no merely arbitrary date can fur nish a philosophical and consistent division between a volume so subtitled and a companion volume like the present, dealing not only with the characters of classic and oriental myth (these date from the unknown past), but also with heroes of the folk-lore, legend and tradition of all times and of that non-literary literature known as the ballad and the chapbook.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes and Heroines of Fiction Roughly speaking, the year 1500 forms the line of cleavage between this volume and its predecessor bearing the subtitle, Modern Prose and Poetry. But no merely arbitrary date can furnish a philosophical and consistent division between a volume so subtitled and a companion volume like the present, dealing not only with the characters of classic and oriental myth (these date from the unknown past), but also with heroes of the folk-lore, legend and tradition of all times and of that non-literary literature known as the ballad and the chapbook. For instance, Captain Kidd, as a ballad hero, properly belongs to this volume (as the compiler has planned it) even though the eccentric pirate flourished in the eighteenth century. So does Mother Shipton, in her quality as a chapbook heroine, though her fame was established in the seventeenth century. So do Uncle Sam and Brother Jonathan, because they are of purely popular origin. A distinction worth noting occurs in the case of John Bull. Name and character were originally invented by John Arbuthnot in a purely literary pasquinade. In his original form, therefore, Master Bull belongs to Volume I. But that original and purely literary form has been so transmogrified in the popular imagination, has gathered such an accretion of details from a hundred unidentifiable sources, that the John Bull of to-day, the protagonist of cartoon and caricature is a totally different being from the John Bull of Arbuthnot's creation. Therefore this secondary character also obtains a niche in the present volume. Other "heroes and heroines" have won for themselves a dual immortality of a similar sort: Cleopatra and Julius Cæsar, for example, are historic characters, belonging to the classic period of antiquity. But they have obtruded themselves into modern "fiction." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroines of Fiction, Vol. 2 HE interest felt in the novels of the Broute sisters was from the first intensely personal, and it grew more and more personal, as the veil was lifted from their pathetic lives, and the close relation between what they had written and what they had been was seen. In the average unliterary mind the relation between the author and his work is always a thing to be taken for granted. He is identified with this or that person in the fiction, and if the reader of average unliterary mind has the chance of speaking to him about his story, he will say, There, where the girl comes to you, and you tell her, or the like. Sometimes this is amusing, and sometimes it is dismaying; in any case it is useless for the author to protest; and it is not very good busi ness for him to do so. The average unliterary reader loves him and his work, according as he finds him per sonally in it, or believes he finds him.
