Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Memoir of Roger Ascham But the work on the Bow has a permanent value in our history. It marks an era in the growth of our language. He dedicated it to his king, Henry VIII., apologizing for writing in English, and offering to pre pare a Greek or Latin version if desired. He says, To have written in another tongue had been more profitable for my study, and more honest [honorable] for my name 3 yet I can think my labour well bestowed, if, with a little hindrance of my profit and name, may come any furtherance to the pleasure or commodity 'of the gentlemen ana'yeonzen of England. As for the Latin or Greek tongue, every thing is so excellently done in them, that none can do better in the English tongue, contrary, every tlzz'ng in a manner so meanly eotlzfor the mailer and handling, lira!

Book The Whole Works of Roger Ascham  Vol  1

Download or read book The Whole Works of Roger Ascham Vol 1 written by Roger Ascham and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Whole Works of Roger Ascham, Vol. 1: Now First Collected and Revised, With a Life of the Author These letters, indeed, written in Latin, are repulsive to the English reader, and have hitherto been printed without any regard whatever to the order in which they were written. Many of them have no date at all; others bear the date of the day only and not of the year, whilst even those which have both the day and the year given in full, are almost useless for historical purposes owing to the preposterous manner in which they are printed. Dr Johnson seems to have made little use of these letters, from which alone we can gain any knowledge of the writers thoughts and feelings, though there are not many collections extant, containing so curious a fund of literary anecdotes and furnishing such ample materials for literary biography. These letters extend over the space of about thirty years, beginning with 1539, when Ascham was a fellow of St Johns College, Cambridge, and ending in December 1568, a few days before his death. "Roger Ascham was born in the year 1515, at Kirby Wiske, (or Kirby Wicke, ) a village near North Allerton in Yorkshire, of a family above the vulgar. His father, John Ascham, was house-steward in the family of Lord Scroop, and is said to have borne an unblemished reputation for honesty and uprightness of life. Margaret, wife of John Ascham, was allied to many considerable families, but her maiden name is not known.

As a full account of the Letters has been given in Vol. I, it is unnecessary to speak about them here; and of the Toxophilus a few words only are needful.

An octavo edition appeared at Wrexham in 1588: and the work is found in all the editions of the English Works.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Whole Works of Roger Ascham, Vol. 1: Now First Collected and Revised, With a Life of the Author; Part 1, Life, &C., And Letters It remains, therefore, to speak of his Letters, which are by far the most interesting part Of his writings, and occupy as much space as all his other works put together. The greater number Of them, it is true, are written in Latin, whereby they are less generally accessible to the reader. But I have endeavoured to remedy this by pre fixing to every letter a short summary of its con tents, by means Of which, the reader may trace the chief facts Of Ascham's life from the year 1539, when he was in full reputation as a scholar at the University, to his death in 1568.
