Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Old French and English Ballads The Ballad Poetry of a country is its most characteristic and its most enduring contribution to the romantic movement. Literary Romanticism has now swayed all currents of thought, again been banished in favour of classicism and formality, and once again triumphed, but through it all the love, the wonder, the terror, the imaginative spirit of these songs have been the unfailing refuge of the many from the narrowness of life, the inexhaustible source from which literature has at each renaissance drawn renewed strength and vigour. The little selection of some score of French and English Ballads now printed is perhaps the more representative of the popular poetry of the two countries, because it is not wholly anonymous or wholly popular. A poem, a folk-tale is not truly representative of its country until it can pass freely from cottage to palace, welcome alike and claiming kinship in either. The song which takes its rise among the people must be resung by the poet before it has lost its dross, the poet's composition must be censored by the million before it appeals to that universal element to which all great work is addressed. Simplicity, nobility, and the fortunate chance which says the unexpected right thing - all these must come together.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ballads Lyrics of Old France: With Other Poems I. Charles D'Orleans, who has sometimes, for no very obvious reason, been styled the father of French lyric poetry, was born in May, 1391. He was the son of Louis D'Orleans, the grandson of Charles V., and the father of Louis XII. Captured at Agincourt, he was kept in England as a prisoner from 1415 to 1440, when he returned to France, where he died in 1465. His verses, for the most part roundels on two rhymes, are songs of love and spring, and retain the allegorical forms of the Roman de la Rose. II Francois Villon, 1431-14 - ? Nothing is known of Villon 's birth or death, and only too much of his life. In his poems the ancient forms of French verse are animated with the keenest sense of personal emotion, of love, of melancholy, of mocking despair, and of repentance for a life passed in taverns and prisons. III. Joachim Du Bellay, 1525-1560. The exact date of Du Bellay's birth is unknown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of British Ballads Although it was not the modern version that moved the great heart of Sidney more than a trumpet, it is undoubtedly that which, for centuries, has maintained its popularity, in England, more firmly, and, perhaps, more universally, than any other of the favourites of the people. And, whether we agree with Percy, in considering that the old ballad was expressly modernised, in consequence of the eulogium it received in the Defence of Poetry or with Scott, in believing the changes it has undergone to have been produced by the gradual alterations of numerous reciters, there can be but one Opinion as to its beauty, grandeur, force, and sim plicity, - qualities, in the happy combination of which, it is unsurpassed by any composition in the language.
