Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs and Ballads of Greater Britain Tms volume, in which poems are literally brought together from the ends of the earth, contains a selection of poetry from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa, India, and the Crown Colonies descriptive of nature, life, and incident in these parts of the empire. Several motives have inspired it. It is an attempt to bring into closer touch the Dominions, with a View to their better understanding of each other's trials, difficulties, and successes. It is an attempt also to make us at home realise more fully the great qualities and strenuous lives of those who have played so large a part in building up the empire - we may have written better poetry, they have lived it - and also lest we forget to keep alive, both at home and abroad, memories of the courage, endurance, and heroic deeds of the pioneers, and ignore the debt we owe to those who have proved worthy sons of the empire, and have opened up so many avenues for our sons and daughters to a wider, freer life, to health and wealth. Lastly, I hope this book will introduce readers at home to poetry which has a charm of its own, due to its freshness, originality, virility and variety of subject, and incidentally it can scarcely fail to give its readers some notion of the wealth, beauty, and resources of various parts of the empire. It may be said, too, that the cultivation of poetry and the imagination are never more to be desired than when the material needs of growing civilisation tend to deaden the higher feelings. It is then that the inspiration of the poet is needed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Traditional Ballad in North America Two major steps are to be taken in assembling the evidence which may eventually bring us closer to the solution of these problems: the collection of texts, and the detailed study and correlation of the material collected. The first step is nearly completed in this country. Under the impetus supplied by the great students of the last two generations, Child himself, Kittredge, Barry, John Lomax, Hudson, Belden, and their fellows, the surviving songs of American and Anglo - American balladry are nearly all in print, on records, or in the various archives in a large variety of forms. Although further collection will and should continue, its hey - day is past. In the words of a Tennessee informant.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of British Ballads Ballad-collectors, however, have never strictly regarded any one of these definitions, and to me their catholicity seems worthy of imitation. I have demanded no more of a ballad than that it should be a simple spirited narra tive; and, though excluding the pure lyrics and metrical romances found in Percy's Reliques or elsewhere, I have been guided in doubtful cases rather by intuition than by rule; having included poems written in every variety of metre except blank verse, and even the latter may seem to be represented by Blake's F air Elinor.
