Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Quarter-Century of English Literature: 1880-1905 Let us look at these facts in another light, at the same time making some sort of rude effort to classify them. At the close of 1880, the six great poets who had long made illustrious the Victorian age of English song were all living and all vocal. Within sixteen years, five of the six had passed away, leaving Mr. Swinburne the sole surviving representative of that great period. Less than this number of years had sufficed to extinguish the entire con stellation of our greater American poets, not one of their fellowship being left us tokeep the torch alight. With George Eliot there died the last of the great English novelists, for it could not be soberly urged that she has found a true successor. Two novelists of unquestionably distinguished achievement - Mr. Thomas Hardy and Sir George Meredith - still live to remind us of the great age of English fiction, but their following is an esoteric cult in com parison with the wide acclaim accorded to Dickens and Thackeray. The twentieth century, moreover, finds us as bereft of prophets as of novelists and poets. The wisest of our time must seem but minor prophets when we contrast their utterances with the burning eloquence of Carlyle and Ruskin, or even with the persuasive accents of Arnold and Newman. Truly, the living word as it comes to the ears of our youth of to-day is but a feeble and ineffectual stimulus to noble thought and action in comparison with the call that rang in the ears of the rising generation a quarter of a century ago.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jonathan Swift, another unique figure of very mixed traits, is like Defoe in that he connects the reign of William III with that of his successors and that, in accordance with the spirit of his age, he wrote for the most part not for literary but for practical purposes; in many other respects the two are widely different. Swift is one of the best representatives in English literature of sheer intellectual power, but his character, his aims, his environment, and the circumstances of his life denied to him also literary achievement of the greatest permanent significance.

Download or read book Old English Literature written by R. M. Liuzza and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognizing the dramatic changes in Old English studies over the past generation, this up-to-date anthology gathers twenty-one outstanding contemporary critical writings on the prose and poetry of Anglo-Saxon England, from approximately the seventh through eleventh centuries. The contributors focus on texts most commonly read in introductory Old English courses while also engaging with larger issues of Anglo-Saxon history, culture, and scholarship. Their approaches vary widely, encompassing disciplines from linguistics to psychoanalysis. In an appealing introduction to the book, R. M. Liuzza presents an overview of Old English studies, the history of the scholarship, and major critical themes in the field. For both newcomers and more advanced scholars of Old English, these essays will provoke discussion, answer questions, provide background, and inspire an appreciation for the complexity and energy of Anglo-Saxon studies.
