This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of the English Novel IN every discussion of tendencies the term evolution claims a place with almost the insist ence of a prescriptive right. No other term localizes the phenomena so definitely, and con veys so promptly the notion of progress in a general line of tendency. Nevertheless, I think most of us would, if we could, rather avoid the term than insist upon it in literary discussion. For the use of the word evolution seems to involve a very elaborate theory. In the title of this chapter - The Evolution of the Novel - the idea suggested indicates that we can name the earlier forms out of which the true novel has been evolved; can arrange.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Novel IT is somewhat curious that there is, so far as I know, no complete handling in English of the subject of this volume, popular and important though that subject has been. Dunlop's History of Fiction, an excellent book, dealt with a much wider matter, and perforce ceased its dealing just at the beginning of the most abundant and brilliant development of the English division. Sir Walter Raleigh's Englirb Novel, a book of the highest value for acute criticism and grace of style, stops short at Miss Austen, and only glances, by a sort of anticipation, at Scott. The late Mr. Sidney Lanier's Englirb Novel and tbe Principle of its Development is really nothing but a lauda tory study of George Eliot, with glances at other writers, including violent denunciations of the great eighteenth century men. There are numerous monographs on parts of the subject: but nothing else that I know even attempt ing the whole. I should, of course, have liked to deal with so large a matter in a larger space: but one may and should cultivate the garden even if it is not a garden of many acres in extent. I need only add that I have endeavoured. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Making of English Literature Each chapter marks a chronological advance on the preceding chapter, except in the last book. There, for reasons suggested in the text, the three chapters deal with three separate departments of the literature of a single period - prose, the novel, and poetry. The titles of the various books and chapters are in harmony With the pur pose to make the volume a discussion of literature and literary movements rather than of general English history. Various helps to more extended study are given in an Appendix, where they may be easily referred to in con nection with the treatment of each period, but where they will not interfere with the continuous reading of the text.

This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of the English Novel The terms 'romance' and 'novel, ' which in them selves are a summary of the two conflicting aims in fiction, require at the outset brief historical and de scriptive definition. The former is in English the older word, being in common use as early as the fourteenth century. Our writers then meant first of all by the romance 8. Highly idealized verse-narrative of adventure or love translated from the French, that is, from a romance language; they also extended the term to similar stories derived from classic and other sources, or of their own invention. For a verse narrative approaching closer to the manners of real life -its intrigues and jealousies, - the Provencal poets had employed the word novas (always plural); for a like narrative in prose, always short, Boccaccio and his contemporaries were using the cognate word novella. Of stories of this realistic content, many were written in English in the fourteenth century, but they were called tales, -a word of elastic con notation, which Chaucer made to comprehend nearly all the different kinds of verse-stories current in his tune. During the two centuries following Boccaccio the Italians continued to compose books of novelle, and in very great numbers. In the age of Elizabeth they came into English 111 shoals, and with them the word 'novel, ' as applicable to either the translation or an imitation. It was a particularly felicitous make-believe designation, for it conveyed the notion that the inci dents and the treatment were new. It however had a hard struggle to maintain itself, for the Elizabethans preferred to it the word 'history, ' which they applied to all manner of fictions in verse and prose, as may be seen from such titles as 'the Tragical History of Romeus and Juliet' and 'the History of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark.' This, too, was a happy desig nation, for it implied a pretended faithfulness to fact. Richardson and Fielding, after some vacilla tion, settled upon the word 'history for their fictions, though they both refer to them as novels. From the invention of printing down to this time the word 'romance, ' by which our mediaeval writers denoted ad ventures in verse or in prose, had not been common in the titles and the prefaces of English fictions, though many romances had been written. But when in the last half of the eighteenth century wild and supernatural stories came into fashion, the word was often placed upon title-pages. At this time Clara Reeve, in an exceedingly pleasant group of dialogues, drew the line of distinction between the romance and the novel. She says in 'the Progress of Romance' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
