It is hoped that the notes may be found sufficiently rate to pave the way to a full appreciation of the poems out hampering the instructor or interfering with the student' self-activity. I was in such dread of over-editing, having severe terrible examples before my eyes, that my first intention wa to include nothing in the notes that could be found by tht student in any ordinary work of reference. So rigorous policy, however, seemed to be mistaken in view of the fac that in some cases such works of reference may not be readil accessible; hence the historical, geographical, and othe annotations. Some of Byron's allusions are of doubtful sig nificance, and in such instances I have expressed merely opinion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prisoner of Chillon: With Selections From Childe Harold and Mazeppa George Gordon Noel Byron was born in London on January 22, 1788. His father was John Byron, a captain in the British army, and nephew of Lord William Byron of Newstead Abbey, Nottingham, England. His mother was Catherine Gordon, daughter of George Gordon, a gentleman of high family and considerable landed estate in Aberdeenshire. Scotland. Captain Byron was a man of disreputable character and extravagant habits. He squandered nearly all his wife's means, and when he died in 1792 there was but a small income left to support the widow and her infant child, then living in the city of Aberdeen. Lord William Byron died in 1798. As he had no children, his property and title descended to his grandnephew, George, who thus at the age of ten years became Lord Byron. The mother and son then removed to Newstead, the ancient home of the Byrons and soon afterwards the young lord was sent to the famous school of Harrow, and subsequently to Trinity College, Cambridge. To his mother's injudicious indulgence has been partly attributed the waywardness that marked his subsequent career. Lord Byron was not what would be called a good student. At Harrow, as he tells us himself, he was "always cricketing, rebelling, fighting, and in all manner of mischiefs." But though he neglected his class studies, he was a great reader of books, particularly books of history, biography, poetry, and fiction. Before he was fifteen years of age he had read histories of all the principal countries of the world, lives of most of the celebrated men of ancient and modern times, and nearly all the British poets. To this early and extensive study of English writers, as one of his biographers remarks, may be attributed that mastery over his own language with which Lord Byron came equipped into the field of literature, and which enabled him as fast as his youthful fancies sprung up to clothe them in words worthy of their beauty. Byron began writing poetry at the age of twelve, and at the age of nineteen he published a collection of his verses under the title "Hours of Idleness." These youthful productions, not of very high merit, were severely criticised by the "Edinburgh Review." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Childe Harold, Canto the Fourth written by Lord Byron and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Childe Harold, Canto the Fourth: The Prisoner of Chillon and Mazeppa The primary purpose of this book is to give the young reader some insight into Byron's genius by presenting for study and for reading those of his poems. Which should make the most immediate appeal. For such a purpose much of Byron's poetry is admirably fitted, since, as a whole, it is not abstruse in its subject-matter, is lucid in its expression, and, above all, is spirited and energetic. To teach the essential spirit of literature, not grammar, philology, or rhetoric, surely should be our aim when we pre sent poetry to our classes. Even history, biography, mythology, or anything else, except as these are absolutely essential to a proper appreciation of the poem, are not really within our province. Teachers of literature have something to do that cannot be done by teachers of other subjects; and we have no business to poach upon the preserves of our colleagues. A great poem, rightly presented, is sure not only to give as thetic pleasure, but to train the mind and the heart as well. In this connection it may not be amiss for one of his old students to acknowledge the help he has received from three essays by Professor W. P. Trent, Teaching the Spirit of Literature, in na Autfwrz'ty of C and The Aims and Methods of Literary Study and Teaching Literature, in Greatness in Lz'tem tu re.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selections From Byron: Childe Harold, Canto IV, the Prisoner of Chillon, Mazeppa, and Other Poems; Edited With Introduction and Notes Later he entered the grammar school of Aberdeen, where he remained till he was called to England at the death Of his granduncle. Here he seems to have distinguished himself more in sports than in studies. By the death Of his granduncle in 1798, Byron succeeded to the title and the family estates. He was so agitated by the acquisition of his strange dignities, that when his name was called at school with its new prefix dom inus he was unable to answer, and after remaining for some time speechless burst into tears.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prisoner of Chillon, and Selections From Childe Harold's Pilgrimage: With Life of Byron, Critical Introduction, and Notes In this edition of selections from Byron the editor has closely followed the mode of treatment pursued in his edition of Scott's Lay, issued last year under the supervision of the Education Department. The aids furnished to the teacher and the pupil are three-fold, as we cannot enjoy the full effects of a literary work without considering, (i) What the author has to say, (2) How he says it, and (3) Why he says it. The author's message is, of course, the main thing for consideration, but, if we would gain a full appreciation of that message, we must attend to the striking features and devices of the artistic medium that conveys it to us, and we must not neglect the remote and the immediate causes that developed or influenced the author's literary genius, thus affecting the cast and coloring of his message. The biographical chapter should be carefully read by the pupil before he reads the poems themselves. He will thus gain a general notion of the conditions under which these works of art were produced. It will be necessary thereafter to make frequent use of the biographical chapter, whenever an examination of the poet's environment will throw light on the text. The explanatory notes are intended for the use of the pupil in his first reading of the poem. The Critical Introduction is intended mainly for the use of the teacher. In the detailed analysis of the finer passages of the poems, the various topics considered in the thirty-two sections of this Intro duction will need to be discussed. When the pupil has been brought to see the poet's art in the poems themselves, a reference to the Critical Introduction will serve to fix his knowledge and to familiarize him with the rhetorical nomenclature. When the study of the poem has been completed, the pupil's critical knowledge may then be systematized by reading the Introduction in course.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Childe Harold's Pilgrimage Canto Fourth: And the Prisoner of Chillon These poems, and indeed all poems, should be taught as literature, and the primary aim should be literary ap preciation. The teacher is often confronted with the problem of getting pupils to see the essential difference between poetry and prose. This can best be done by good interpretative reading and by calling attention to the fact that poetry makes more of an emotional than an intellectual appeal, that it is largely imaginative and suggestive, and that it deals more with great truths than with facts.
