Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Men of Letters, Vol. 9: Chaucer; Lamb; De Quincey The peculiar conditions of this essay must be left to ex plain themselves. It could not have been written at all without the aid Of the Publications Of the Chaucer Socie ty, and more especially Of the labours Of the Society's Director, Mr. Furnivall. To other recent writers on Chau cer - including Mr. Fleay, from whom I never differ but with hesitation - I have referred, in so far as it was in my power to do so. Perhaps I may take this opportunity Of expressing a wish that Pauli's History of England, a work beyond the compliment of an acknowledgment, were acces sible to every English reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Men of Letters In the life of De Quincey even such a trifle is worth noting. In no autobiography do the recollections of mere infancy and childhood occupy so much space, or count for so much, as in his. Accordingly, while the general impres sion he conveys of himself from his second or third year onwards is that of a very diminutive, shy, sensitive, and dreamy child, moving about, when out-of-doors, always on green turf or in garden-walks, and within-doors always among young brothers and sisters, in a house of wealthy and even luxurious elegance, the actual incidents of his infancy and childhood, which he has embalmed for us so carefully in such marvellous prose, have to be distributed between the two habitations above named, once visible on the rusfie margin of Manchester, but now engulfed in its brick and uproar. It was at The Farm that he hada. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Men of Letters, Vol. 12: Pope, Johnson, Gray His grandson, the present Sir Charles W. Dilke, in 1875. Meanwhile Mr. Croker had been making an ex tensive collection of materials for an exhaustive edition of Pope'sworkainwhichhe wasto beamisted by Mr. Peter Cunningham. After Oroker'e death these materials were submitted by Mr. Murray to Mr. Whitwell Elwin, whose own researches have grmtly extended our knowledge, and who had also the advantage of Mr. Dilke's advice. Mr. Elwin began, in 1871, the publication of the long-promised edition. It was to have occupied ten volumes - five of poems and five of correspondence, the latter of which was to include a very large proportion of previously nu published matter. Unfortunately for all students of Eng lish fitsraturaonly two volumes of poetryand three of correspondence have appeared The notes and prefaces, however, contain a vast amount of information, which slurs up many previously disputed points in the poets career; and it is to be hoped that the materials collected for the remaining volumes will not be ultimately lost. It is easy to dispute some of Mr. Elwin's critical opinions, but it would be impossible to speak too highly of the value of his investigations of facts. Without a study of his work, no adequate knowledge of pope is attainable. Biographer of Pope, if he ever appears, must be endowed with the qualities of an acute critic and a patient antiquarian; and it would take years of labour to work mt all the minute problems connected with the subject. All that I can profess to have done is to have given a short summary of the obvious facts, and of the main conclusions established by the evidence given at length in thewritingsof Mr. Dilke and Mr. Elwin. I have added such criticisms as seemed desirable in a work of this kind, and I must beg pardon by anticipation if I have fallen hiio inaccuracies in relating a story so full of.

Download or read book Implication Readers Resources and Thomas Gray s Pindaric Odes written by Frederick M. Keener and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Implication, Readers' Resources, and Thomas Gray's Pindaric Odes presents an account of "the Poets' Secret," the quite belated, historically recent, discovery by scholars and critics of something many poets have recognized and employed for ages: the sense expressed by allusively parallel parts within a text--thus expressed intratextually rather than only intertextually. Inferential perception of the implicit sense produced logically and linguistically--by enthymemes, implicatures, and other intratextual features, as well as intertextual ones--can be indispensable for readers' comprehension of literary as well as other texts, especially their difficult passages. Implication, Readers' Resources, and Thomas Gray's Pindaric Odes addresses these elusive matters as they have historically been posed by Thomas Gray's Pindaric odes of 1757, and mainly the first of them, "The Progress of Poesy," a poem that readers have more or less knowledgeably struggled to understand from the outset. The process of disclosing that ode's sense can be aided by new further reference to Paradise Lost, in the context of Gray's largely unpublished Commonplace Book, with its extensive, little-studied, and very pertinent use of Plato and Locke.
