Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Prose Fiction, Vol. 1 HE value of Dunlop's History of Fiction, now again, after a long lapse of years, placed within reach of the English reader, needs no demonstration it is amply attested by the numerous quotations from and references to it in all works, even of the most recent date, upon the history of imaginative literature. The explorations in the field of the genesis and genealogy of fiction have, indeed, recently attained such extensive development that pro bably no single writer could now be found bold enough to review such a vast domain as forms the scope of Dunlop's undertaking.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Fiction, Vol. 1 of 3: Being a Critical Account of the Most Celebrated Prose Works of Fiction, From the Earliest Greek Romances to the Novels of the Present Age The mind with shadows when it cannot enjoy the substance: For, upon a narrow inspec tion, Fiction strongly shows that a greater va riety if things, a more perfect order, a more beautiful variety, than can any where he found in nature, is pleasing to the mind. And as real history gives us not the success of things according to the deserts of vice and virtue, Fiction corrects it, and presents us with the fates and fortunes of persons rewarded or pu nished according to merit. And as real his tory disgusts us with a familiar and constant similitude of things, F ictz'oa relieves us expected turns and changes, and thus not only delights, but inculcates morality and no bleness of soul. It raises the mind by so commodating the images of things to our de sires, and, not like history and reason, subs jecting the mind to things.

Accordingly, the author has confined the treatment to what is probably its most important phase - the expressed the ory of characterization in the long prose fiction prior to 1740.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Fiction, Vol. 2 of 3: Being a Critical Account of the Most Celebrated Prose Works of Fiction, From the Earliest Greek Romances to the Novels of the Present Age The French writers, on the other hand, and par ticularly the Comte de Tressan, in his preface to the Traduction libre d' Amadis de Gaule, have insisted that the work (or at least the three first of the four books it contains) Was originally written in French, in the reign of Philip Augustus, or one' of his predecessors. His arguments rest on some vague assertions in old French manuscripts, that Amadis had been at one time extant, and on the similarity of the manners, and even incidents, de scribed ih Amadis, with those of Tristan and Lan celot, which are avowedly French: he thinks it also immobable that while such hatred subsisted between the French and Spaniards, an author of the latter nation should have chosen a Gallic knight for his favourite hero; but this argument strikes only against a Spanish and not a Portugueze ori ginal. To the reasons of Tressan, however, may be added the testimony of one Portugueze poet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Fiction: Being a Critical Account of the Most Celebrated Prose Works of Fiction From the Earliest Greek Romances to the Novels of the Present Age The art of fictitious narrative appears to have Its origin in the same principles of selection by which the fine arts in general are created and perfected. Among the vast variety of trees and shrubs which are presented to his view, a savage finds, in his wanderings, some which peculiarly attract his notice by their beauty and fragrance, and these he at length selects, and plants them round his dwelling. In like manner, among the mixed events of human life, he experiences some which are peculiarly grateful, and of which the narra tive at once pleases himself, and excites in the minds of his hearers a kindred emotion. Of this kind are °unlooked-for occurrences, successful enterprise, or great and unexpected deliverance from signal danger and distress. As he collected round his habitation those objects with which he had been pleased, in order that they might afford him a frequent gratification, so he rests his fancy on those incidents which had formerly awaked the most powerful emotions; and the remem brance of which most strongly excites his tenderness, or pride, or gratitude.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Literature in America When it was proposed that Wendell's Literary History of America should be reprinted in a school edition, it was clear to us that for such use the book needed thorough revision. Many passages, which properly found place in a book intended for general reading, involved expressions of opinion obviously unsuitable for schools. In preparing this school version, our object has accordingly been to omit needless or debatable matter, but to preserve the general outline and all available portions of the original work. To aid us in our task, we submitted the Literary History, chapter by chapter, to an advanced class of students at Harvard College, whom we encouraged to criticise it minutely in writing. The energy and good sense with which they did so have enabled us to correct many slight errors, and, at the same time, have strengthened our conviction that the earlier book was historically sound. We cannot too heartily acknowledge our debt to this critical collaboration of our pupils. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Spanish Literature, Vol. 1 of 3 The natural result of such a long-continued interest in Spanish literature, and of so many pleasant inducements to study it, has been - I speak in a spirit of extenuation and self-defence - a book. In the interval between my two residences m Europe I delivered lectures upon its principal topics to successive classes in Harvard College; and, on my return home from the second, I endeavoured to arrange these lectures for publication. But when I had already employed much labour and time on them, I found -or thought I found - that the tone of discussion which I had adopted for my academical audiences was not suited to the purposes of a regular history. Destroying, there fore, what I had written, I began afresh my never un welcome task, and so have prepared the present work, as little connected with all I had previously done as it, perhaps, can be, and yet cover so much of the same ground.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Prose Fiction, Vol. 2 It seems not a little remarkable that Italy, which produced the earliest and finest specimens of romantic poetry, should scarcely have furnished a single prose romance of chivalry. This is the more remarkable, as the Italians seem to have been soon and intimately acquainted with the works of the latter description produced among the neighbouring nations. Nor does this knowledge appear merely from the poems of Pulci and Boiardo, but from the authors of a period still more remote, in whom we meet with innumerable allusions to incidents related in the tales of chivalry. Dante represents the perusal of the story of Lancelot, as conducting Paolo and Francesca al doloroso passo (Inf. c. 5), and elsewhere shows his acquaintance with the fabulous stories of Arthur and Charlemagne (Inf. c. 31 and 32, Parad. c. 16 and 18). Petrarch also appears to have been familiar with the exploits of Tristan and Lancelot (Trionfi, &c.).In the Cento Novelle Antiche there exists the story of King Meliadus and the Knight without Fear; as also of the Lady of Scalot, who died for love of Lancelot du Lac.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of American Literature The general purpose in the preparation of this book has, been to eliminate negligible detail and to subordinate or omit authors of minor importance in order to stress the men and the movements that are most significant in American intel lectual history/ The book has therefore been written with a view to showing the drift of American thought as illustrated by major writers or groups and as revealed by a careful study of one or two cardinal works by each. In this sequence of thought the growth of American self-consciousness and the changing ideals of American patriotism have been kept in mind throughout. The attempt is made to induce study of representative classics and extensive reading of the American literature which illuminates the past of the country chieﬂy, of course, in reminiscent fiction, drama, and poetry.
