Poetry, then, was the first influence which elevated the human mind amid the miseries of a gloomy period, if we may except the schools of philosophy which flourished in the rising universities. But poetry probably preceded all other forms of culture in Europe, even as it preceded philosophy and art in Greece. The gay Provencal singers were harbingers of Dante, even as unknown poets prepared the way for Homer.

Book excerpt: John Lord (10 September 1810 - 15 December 1894) was an American historian and lecturer. Born at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, he graduated from Dartmouth in 1833 and then entered the Andover Theological Seminary, where in his second year he wrote a series of lectures on the Dark Ages, which he delivered the next fall during a tour through northern New York. The first great genius who aroused his country from the torpor of the Middle Ages was a poet. Poetry, then, was the first influence which elevated the human mind amid the miseries of a gloomy period, if we may except the schools of philosophy which flourished in the rising universities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beacon Lights of History, Vol. 6: Renaissance and Reformation The critics assign to Dante a pre-eminence over most of those we call immortal. Only two or three other poets in the whole realm of literature, ancient or mod ern, dispute his throne. We compare him with Homer and Shakspeare, and perhaps Goethe, alone. Civili zation glories in Virgil, Milton, Tasso, Racine, Pope, and Byron, all immortal artists; but it points to only four men concerning whose transcendent crea tive power there is unanimity of judgment, - prodigies of genius, to whose influence and fame we can assign no limits; stars of such surpassing brilliancy that we can only gaze and wonder, - growing brighter and brighter, too, with the progress of ages; so remarkable that no barbarism will ever obscure their brightness, so original that all imitation of them becomes impossi ble and absurd. So great is original genius, directed by art and consecrated to lofty sentiments. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
