Book Synopsis Studies in Literature (Classic Reprint) by : Frederick M. Tisdel
Download or read book Studies in Literature (Classic Reprint) written by Frederick M. Tisdel and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Literature This book is intended as a textbook for secondary schools; it is a guide to the study of the classics read in these schools and required for admission to college in English. Its purpose is not to take the place of the introductions and notes of the annotated editions, but to supplement them. The objects of the study of any classic in the secondary schools are four: (1) to understand the language of the classic; (2) to appreciate its literary qualities, especially those qualities that make the classic a masterpiece of the type of literature to which it belongs; (3) to realize the connection of the classic with life, and (4) to fix the place of the classic in literary history. For the first of these objects, the annotated editions give ample help. In this textbook, therefore, purely philological notes have been, for the most part, avoided. In Part I, the primary aim has been to define briefly the various literary types and to impress their most salient characteristics by an inductive study of representative classics. An effort has also been made to bring the thought of the classics into relation with ordinary experience. There are some who believe such a "literary study" impracticable. The author thinks otherwise. His experience in teaching in the secondary schools has led him to believe that something more can be done to systematize "literary study." He realizes the difficulty of keeping a consistent course between the obvious and trivial on the one hand, and the vague and impressional on the other, and can hardly expect to be free from error in one or the other direction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Studies in Literature These studies, chosen from a larger number which appeared during a series of years in The Fortnightly Review, are reprinted with the permission of the proprietors of that periodical. The portion of the volume which deals with Goethe is derived from an examination of Goethe's mind and art, to which I gave much time and pains, but which still remains incomplete. So much new material has recently come to light, so much awaits publication, and so great has been the industry of German scholars, that delay seemed advisable. Certain fragments of my study were thrown into the shape of addresses delivered as President of the English Goethe Society; one - that on Goethe's friendship with Schiller - was read before the Manchester Goethe Society. The article on "Literary Criticism in France" was given as one - I believe the first - of the recently established Taylorian lectures at Oxford.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Literary Values: Studies in Modern Literature This is not to say that no criticism is good which does not take the form of philosophical investiga tion, but that such investigation must precede any further discussion. Criticism must assume a stable standard of values and constant points of reference, and the discovery of these must be made by each critic for himself. Otherwise there cannot even be an intelligent handling of vocabulary. What can the critic do with such words as aesthetic, form, ideal, significant, unless he has satisfied himself about their meaning by his own investigations? How often do we see quite un defined terms flung about loosely in critical writing which passes for profound! Definition of terms is no simple matter it is not the beginning of a thought-process but the end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literary Studies of Poems, New and Old The following is chiefly a selection from papers written for English literature classes at the Ladies' College, Cheltenham. Others are reprints from various periodicals. The first two were written for meetings of our Guild of old pupils, at which were given respectively scenes from Dante, and from Spenser's Faery Queene. I have thought it best to leave them in their original form. The allusions in the Britomart paper are to stained glass windows representing six episodes in the story, (1) Britomart is looking into the magic mirror. (2) She is clothing herself in armour in the Church. (3) She is defending the Red-cross Knight. (4) She is passing through the fire. (5) She meets Sir Arthegall. (6) She sends him out to accomplish his work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Short Studies in Literature That these brief chapters may prove helpful to readers of books who desire to become students of literature, is the hope which the writer ventures to cherish in the face of defects more obvious to him than to the most unsympathetic critic. These studies are not critical but interpretative; they are neither exhaustive nor inclusive; they are mainly hints and suggestions. Each chapter might be elaborated into a volume. If they serve to indicate the leading lines of literary development, the fundamental divisions and distinctions, the deep and vital tendencies, they will accomplish the end for which they were written. That they represent deep convictions concerning the significance of literature rather than a purely critical attitude, will be apparent to the most indifferent reader.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundation Studies in Literature A new text-book in literature should have some reason to be in these days of making many books. The best possible reason that can be given for the preparation of a work of this kind, is that it furnishes to both teachers and students a method of study that necessarily leads to certain definite and much valued results, among which are the following: A better appreciation of artistic merit in poetry; a knowledge of. The relation of the mythology of Greece and Rome to the poetry of every European nation and language of modern times; the power to use this golden key.

The ground work of the essay on Pope, republished by the courtesy of Messrs. Longmans, is to be found in Fraser's Magazine; but the author has also made use, with the permission of the proprietors, of several papers on the same subject printed in the Pall Mall Gazette and in the Athenwum.

This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Spanish-American Literature The purpose of the present volume is to introduce to Eng lish readers a continental culture that they have too long neglected. Not that we have been alone in our neglect; Spain itself, the mother nation of Spanish America's grow ing republics, has until very recently ignored the letters of its numerous offspring. Owing to the meager acquaintance that our reading pub lic has with spanish-american literature, a book of purely critical essays is at this time inadvisable; I have, there fore, in the following chapters, greely mingled excerpts, exposition and a modicum of criticism, in the hope of thus providing an incentive for further delving into the authors and the books commented upon. Whatever criticism I have written has been determined by a flexible attitude, I have sought to suggest rather than to define.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Several Literatures Several years ago, Mr. Andrew Carnegie, who is always doing something interesting and unexpected, gave to the public his opinion as to the literary and ethical value of Homer. Not a few persons were in clined to mock at this deliverance and to recall the old maxim that the cobbler should stick to his last. Mr. Carnegie, they said, might know more about iron and steel than any other living man; but why should he put himself forward as an authority on Classical literature? He himself would certainly not have listened with much respect to the views of Professor Gildersleeve or the late Sir Richard Jebb on the subject of iron tubing and steel rails.

Book Synopsis Studies in New England Transcendentalism (Classic Reprint) by : Harold Clarke Goddard
Download or read book Studies in New England Transcendentalism (Classic Reprint) written by Harold Clarke Goddard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in New England Transcendentalism Since the scope and purpose of this study are stated at some length in the introductory chapter, it will here be sufficient, perhaps, to call attention to the fact that, as its title indicates, the essay makes no pretence of being a history of New England transcendentalism. Such a history would necessarily be a far more ambitious undertaking than the present work, which is restricted to a consideration of a few definitely selected questions. The discussion of these points, moreover, is even further narrowed by being carried on with reference, in the main, to the so-called leaders of the movement. The reasons for these limitations are given in the introduction, where, also, the emphasis placed on Dr. Channing and the comparative neglect of Thoreau - features of the treatment which at first sight may cause surprise - are fully explained. Perhaps the only other comment that is needed is the observation that the term "Platonism," especially in the concluding chapter, is used in a very elastic and untechnical sense, and where a man is spoken of as a Platonist it is not necessarily implied that he embraced in detail the philosophy of Plato. This essay was submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Columbia University, and the author takes this opportunity of expressing to the faculty of the English Department at Columbia his gratitude for their valuable assistance - to Professor Brander Matthews, Professor G. R. Carpenter, Professor A. H. Thorndike, and, above all, to Professor W. P. Trent, at whose suggestion the study was undertaken and under whose supervision it was written. To Professor Trent's generous help and to his wide knowledge of American literature, any merits which the book may have are, in no inconsiderable measure, due; the author alone is responsible for its shortcomings.
