Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cavalier to His Lady: Love-Poems of the 17th Century It will be seen that I have not gone far afield in my gleaning; most of the now famous Elizabethan Lyrics are here, and if I have omitted any such (as certain of Shakespeare's, for instance) it was for lack neither of due consideration nor of appreciation, but because they were adjudged either over-familiar, or outside my time-limit (however elastic and arbitrary), or otherwise inconvenient to my scheme. To many readers well acquainted with the majority of these poems, some, I think, will be new - such as Sedley's Love still has something of the sea and his Phillis is my only joy, wherein the first line of the one should captivate the fancy, and the first line of the other strike familiarly on the ear. At the worst I must put forward the anthologist's ultimate defence, that I put them in because I like them.

Download or read book Rare Poems written by W. Linton and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the introductory. UNDER the title GOLDEN APPLES OF HESPERUS I lately printed a limited edition (only 225 copies) of "Poems not in the Collections," meaning the general selections accessible to the ordinary readers -- not really students of English poetry. The present book is but in part a reprint of that. Half the wood cuts omitted, some new ones are given; and instead of poems of the 19th century, additional poems of the 16th and 17th centuries, with a selection from the anonymous writings of the same period, out of early miscellanies, or from reprints by Park, Ellis, Collier, Arber, &c. The Notes are all new. Some very few of these contents of my book may possibly be found in one or other anthology, escaping my search; half a dozen in Ward's English Poets, 1880 (obtained after I had arranged my work), I have thought it worthwhile to retain, for reasons stated in my Notes. Of the Anonymous Poems, one or two, now and then accidentally appearing in some out of the way collection, I have repeated for the sake of nearer completeness of this division of my subject. My book here meets a want, whether to be accounted for by the insufficient industry of collectors, or for other reasons, I need not care to determine. It is enough to state the fact, while redeeming so much of neglected worth as may be within reach of one who claims not scholarship, but dares to call himself a lover of the old writers. Toward a correct text I have done all an unlearned man is able to do, taking for guide the belief that our poets were not writers of nonsense. My book meant for the general reader, old spelling is preserved only in those few places in which the modernizing would disturb either the measure or the rhyme: e.g. -- (pp. 1-2) herbis, stalkis, thingis; mene for moan, and (p. 6) hert for heart. For old spelling else, beyond antiquarian interest, I have no more respect than for printers' points. There were no established rules in those days: authors were - lawless; careless or uncertain even as to their proper names. "Our ancestors, finding it absolutely impossible to adopt any consistent mode of orthography, fairly left it to the discretion or caprice of the several writers and transcribers." (ELLIS -- Introductory Remarks on Language.) There is applicable truth too in the confession of the printer of Sidney's Arcadia, that "being spred abroade in written coppies" (note here the spelling revised!) muck corruption had been gathered by ill writers. For punctuation, since Arber, Ellis, Collier (it may be closely following the copy before them), to say nothing of editors not so accomplished, do, sometimes, play havoc with their author's meaning, I have ventured to judge for myself; and to punctuate according to context and the obvious or the seeming intention of the writer. All important changes will be acknowledged in the Notes. I ask the more learned student's mercy where I go wrong.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cavalier and Courtier Lyrists: An Anthology of 17th Century Minor Verse Upon in so far as it falls fairly well within the general scheme Of this volume, as ultimately determined. To have mingled the strains Of hymns and serenades would have tended to discord; to avoid complications of arrangement sacred lyrics have not been included. Lyrists like Crashaw and Vaughan are represented, therefore, only very slightly and in secular con tributions and a few others who wrote copiously and on a variety Of themes, are also but slightly represented. The collection Of verse in this volume, though not comprehensively representa tive, will nevertheless, perhaps, serve as an index, and convey a tolerably adequate im pression Of some characteristic poetic ten dencies and qualities Of the period with which it deals.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not always easy to maintain a proper balance between the delineation of cultural development within a given literary field and the claims of practical criticism. And yet if the history of ideas is to be more than a pastime for the student of literature, it must be rooted in the precise art of discrimination. The following chapters attempt to describe and evaluate a particular cultural development by relating the background of ideas to the literary achievement of three writers. It will be sufficient here to out line the nature of the problem, and the method and approach employed. The concept of cultural development implies a recognition of the con nections between ideology and aesthetics. There are at least two ways of exploring such connections. The one, pioneered by Basil Willey, seeks to situate the critical moments of our cultural development in the back ground of ideas, without which the contribution of a particular author cannot be justly evaluated. The danger of such an approach is that the task of discrimination comes to depend over-heavily on extra-literary criteria.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seventeenth Century Lyrics Some experience in compiling selections has taught me that it is scarcely possible, so far as the reader is concerned, to take too little trouble in explaining the method on which they are compiled. I shall only say as briefly as possible that I have construed the term 'seventeenth Century liberally, but not, I hope, too liberally, by extending the terminus a ouo a little into the sixteenth. The death of Dryden, the last singer for many years who really sang in anything but comic vein, coincides so exactly with the century's close that no trespass there was necessary, or possible. For the rest, I have seldom considered the familiarity, and never the strangeness, of the pieces I have chosen that is to say, I have seldom been deterred from giving a place to anything that I thought superlatively good because it was already well known, and I have.
