Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge History of English Literature, Vol. 14 In the intellectual pursuits which form great minds [he said], this country was formerly pre-eminent. England once stood at the head of European philosophy. Where stands She now? Out of the narrow bounds Of mathematical and physical science, not a vestige of a reading and thinking public engaged in the investigation of truth as truth, in the prosecution of thought for the sake of thought. Among few except sectarian religionists - and what they are we all know - is there any interest in the great problem of man's nature and life: among still fewer is there any curiosity re specting the nature and principles of human society, the history or the philosophy of civilization; nor any belief that, from such inquir ies, a single important practical consequence can follow.' About the same time, or a few years earlier, similar views con cerning the low estate Of English philosophy had been expressed by Sir William Hamilton and by Thomas Carlyle;2 and a foreign Observer - Hegel - had spoken with scorn Of the usage of the word philosophy in the English language.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge History of English Literature, Vol. 9 HE present volume, we hope, will shortly be followed by the tenth, dealing with the age of Johnson. As the canvas grows more crowded, we must ask our readers to take note that the grouping of writers, on the principles which we have endeavoured to follow in this work, makes it impossible, even were it desirable, to maintain a strict chronological order as to the inclusion of particular names in particular volumes. Thus, in the present volume, notices of several divines, and, again, of several dramatists, together with the mention of other names, have had to be reserved for its successor.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge History of English Literature, Vol. 5 The editors hope that readers of these volumes will find that the chapters supplement each other in particular passages, more especially in those which seek to summarise certain growths, such as the chronicle history, the domestic drama and the pastoral drama. Although an attempt has been made, wherever possible, to avoid discrepancies with regard to the dates of certain plays or to the shares of dramatists in plays written in conjunction, it is inevitable, in a work of composite authorship, that some such discrepancies should remain. The cross references which the editors have added in their footnotes will, it is hoped, enable students readily to test for themselves the nature of the evidence upon which individual conclusions are based.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge History of English Literature, Vol. 10: The Age of Johnson After a protracted period of tentative effort, the English novel in the eighteenth century sprang into complete being from a soil not upturned by any violent social upheaval, but in which a deep movement of vitality had been secretly at work. The moral revolution sometimes called the renascence of sentiment cannot be said to have preceded the birth of Richardson's masterpieces; but their success, to some extent, was favoured by it, while they contributed to give it weight. The literary growth into which the sap that had permeated the Elizabethan drama was again to flow could thus be sustained by a radical energy equal in depth, if not in breadth, to that by means of which Shakespeare's plays had flourished. From the age of Milton to that of Wesley, puritanism, to all appearance, had been struck out of art, as it had out of the brilliant, superficial life of the world. Yet, Bunyan had dreamt his dream, and visualised for ever his imaginings; Addison had reconciled literature with the earnest purposes of human life; Defoe had grasped the concrete substance of things and breathed truth into fiction. From the beginning of the Georgian era, the rise of the trading class had been slowly infusing into public opinion a new spirit of probity and fervour. About 1740, the methodist movement was in full activity, and the sentimental reaction was gathering an impetus destined to contribute to no less a result than the romantic revival. A contemporary as he was of Wesley and of Young, Richardson signalises the advent of a momentous change, the full extent of which was never to become perceptible to himself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge History of English Literature, Vol. 3 The effective support given us in our endeavours to provide a history for both the general reader and the student by the combination of a text abstaining as much as possible from technicalities, with bibliographies as full as possible of matter, has been a source of great encouragement to us in carrying on our task. We are convinced that it is the duty of a university press to endeavour both to meet the highest demands that can be made upon its productions by men of learning and letters, and to enable the many to share in the knowledge acquired by the few. It may interest our readers to know that, by permission of the Syndics of the Press, copies of Professor Manly's chapter on Piers the Plowman, in our second volume, have been circulated among its members by the Early English Text Society - the body of scholars best qualified to estimate the importance of this contribution. The offprint is accompanied by a few pages of pregnant "forewords" from the pen of the veteran founder and director of the Society, and by the article on the same subject contributed to Modern Philology in January, 1906, and Dr. Henry Bradley's letter in The Athenaeum of 21 April, 1906.
