Book Synopsis English History in Verse (Classic Reprint) by : Ernest Pertwee
Download or read book English History in Verse (Classic Reprint) written by Ernest Pertwee and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English History in Verse A volume of moderate compass which illustrates from English Poetry many of the principal events of the History of England should be of great service, especially to the young. Herein the student gets the facts which have built up England as it is to-day, dealt with in a picturesque manner. The story of a nation's life as seen by the Poet must always be fascinating, and serve to make the men and actions of the past live again with a reality that prose cannot equally impart. Such inaccuracies as are to be found in some of the poems and ballads given in this volume are more than balanced by the manner in which the writers portray the spirit animating the times with which they are concerned, and the passions which called forth the character and heroism which they vividly describe. I believe that to the young this book will prove attractive that by means of it Teachers will find it a far easier task to awaken an intelligent interest in those wider fields of History upon which this volume makes no attempt to touch.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of English Poetry, Vol. 3 In the first volume of this History I expressed the hope that my work might be completed by the close of the last century. I have observed without surprise that by my failure to make good this anticipation I have exposed myself to some, perhaps not unmerited, reproach. But I venture to think I am not without excuse. Had it indeed been my purpose to make this History a mere record of biographical facts and isolated studies of individual poets, I might have been able to perform what I promised. But to accomplish the task that I have proposed to myself - namely, to trace through our poetry the growth of the national imagination, and to estimate the place occupied by each poet in a continuous movement of art - steady concentration of thought is required; and here circumstances have been against me. For to say nothing of my official duties, my election in 1895 to the Chair of Poetry at Oxford, which I could not have foreseen when making my first calculations, turned the thoughts of my leisure hours in a different direction, and it was not until the close of 1900 that I was able to resume my interrupted work.

Download or read book English History Told by English Poets (Classic Reprint) written by Katharine Lee Bates and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English History Told by English Poets It is hoped that this volume will find a place as a reading-book in connection with the study of English history. Poets are spirited historians; they enlist imagination and sympathy in the cause of the fading past. They turn the task of memory to pastime. They are not always accurate, but neither are more sedate chroniclers. The dulness of a record was never yet proof of its veracity. The London populace of Elizabethan times learned English history from the stage. The reigns of the Plantagenets, the Wars of the Roses, and the reigns of the Tudors were set forth in a long series of chronicle plays and historical dramas. In these, as in the lyrics and ballads that more commonly express the Stuart reigns, the tendency is to concentrate attention on royal and noble personages rather than on the life of the nation as a whole.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from English History in English Poetry: From the French Revolution to the Death of Queen Victoria IF we are to rear boys to be good citizens, it is needful to teach them the history of their own country, and not only the story of its remoter but that of its most recent past. It is not sufficient to acquaint them with the England of the Middle Ages or the England of the Stuarts they must be interested in the England of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, so that they may come to understand the political society in which it will be their lot to live and act. To understand the present they must first learn to realise the difference between England as it is now and England as it was a hundred years ago; next, to know the causes which have made our England so different from that of George III; lastly, to trace the process by which the one has grown up out of the other.
