Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Novel in the Time of Shakespeare In the middle of the 16thcentury, the taste for book-collecting had gained a firm hold upon the country. Queen Elizabeth herself was apbibliomaniac, though her passion for books was excelled by Archbishop Cotton, Sir Thomas Bodley, and Dr. John Dee. Books were sumptuously bound and virtuosos were curious in the choice of their clasps and their silk strings, fastidious in the erection of their libraries, nice in their taste for engraved borders, title-pages, and capital initials. The contents of one royal library of the day are knownto us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Literature During the Lifetime of Shakespeare The following pages attempt to tell once more, and as far as possible at first hand, the fascinating story of Elizabethan literature. But the tale has been somewhat compressed to treat what preceded the birth of Shakespeare with brevity, and what followed his death merely by indications and sug gestions. This compression has seemed the more justifiable because Shakespeare's own work, thus contemplated in what surrounded it, gives to the subject a closer unity, and because the transition from literature, as an Elizabethan conceived and practised it, to what it came to be regarded in the time of Charles I, was well on its way by the year 1616.

Bullen's to discover to the world the wealth of melody and fancy hid away in Elizabethan and Jacobean song-books. Where he harvested I have but gleaned. Yet I shall leave the numbers hereafter set forth to Speak for themselves, and be content to note - what, for the rest, is plain - that there is no set madrigal form in verse. Drummond's so-called Madrigals, for instance, are simply brief irregular odes; but their nomenclature is merely arbitrary, inasmuch as nothing is a madrigal unless the musician will it so, . While anything is a madrigal provided the musician so will it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The England of Shakespeare The prophecy has been fearfully falsified. We should like to hear an expression of the Professor's views at the present time. Probably he has joined the pleasant company of other German writers, inebriated with their arrogance, who maintain that our poet has left his native shore and sought an asylum and an enduring home in the Fatherland. One of our greatest authorities on Shakespeare, Sir Sidney Lee, has well said, We welcome the homage which Germany pays Shakespeare. We treat that homage as a tribute, in whatever spirit rendered, to poetic genius and power which are essentially English. The German homage to Shake speare is an involuntary confession. There are lessons which Shakespeare can teach that the Germans have yet to learn, and we can wish nothing better for them and for ourselves than that they should supply the defect at an early date.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare Evident that the foremost name upon the list must be that of the noblest poet the world has ever known; so it would seem, at first sight, to follow as a matter of course that in order to do adequate justice to so stupendous a theme the services of some author of the highest repute and authority should be employed. But here a difficulty arises: whole libraries have been written upon the subject from the literary, artistic, aesthetic, dramatic, metaphysical, and indeed all conceivable points of View, so that a new book on Shakespeare must almost inevitably begin with an apology. The editor of this series, bearing in mind that it is designed for the benefit of the large class of readers who are interested in English literature, and is intended to supply at a minimum expenditure of time and money a sound general knowledge of the lives of our greatest writers, and of the nature and character of their writings, has intrusted the task to one.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare in the Eighteenth Century At no time since his death has Shakespeare not been placed upon a pinnacle by himself as the greatest of all English writers. But each age has its own point of View, its own special interests, its characteristic method of treatment; and no age can ever say the last word on anything that is a living and life-giving force. Say the last word on Shakespeare, and Shakespeare is dead. There can never be finality in the criticism of a great author. The truth and the beauty embodied in his work exercise the taste and the acumen of one critic, and remain undiminished and untarnished for the next. All the best criticism of the present day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Shakespeare Worldly Empire has always been gluttonous and foolish. It has always been a monstrous sentimental bubble blown out of something dead that was once grand. Man's true empire is not in continents nor over the sea, but within himself, in his own soul. Here in London, where a worldly empire is con trolled, there exists no theatre in which the millions can see that other empire. They pass from one grey street to another grey street, to add up figures, or to swallow patent medicines, with no thought that life has been lived nobly, and burningly and knightly, for great ends, and in great passions, as the vision of our great mind declares.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reading of Shakespeare Almost every English-speaking man with literary tastes has had, at some time in his life, a bout with Shakespeare, since this dramatist represents the highest object of his literary curiosity, and it may also be affirmed that one who possesses any virility of mind is made stronger by the study of Shakespeare; our strenuous chief magistrate, it is said, is fond of Shakespeare, and reads him for refreshment while stretched before the fire in his Montana log cabin. The subject itself of Shakespeare aids us in our reading by its very magnitude. Nature has produced three poets who stand like mountain peaks higher than the rest - Homer, Dante, and Shakespeare.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life of William Shakespeare: With an Essay Toward the Expression of His Genius, and an Account of the Rise and Progress of the English Drama Collier's later work upon those subjects, by its ful ness and its systematic arrangement, supersedes all others, either for the use of the dramatic stu dent, or as a book of reference for the occasional inquirer. Yet the account of the English drama given in the following pages will be found to be something more, as well as something less, than an abridgment of Mr. Collier's three octavo vol nmes. These remarks apply only to the first and last divisions of this volume. The second, the Essay toward an Expression of Shakespeare's Genius, is the endeavor of one who, having read the poet much and his critics little, has thought his own thoughts and trusted his own judgment upon this subject, until, with a mingling of confidence and difi'idence which it would be difficult to explain, he now ventures to offer his conclusions as hints and aids to others; conscious the while that those who can judge them best are those who need them least.
