Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literature and Criticism The validity of this little book depends upon the belief that the character of a writer's whole achievement can only be felt and assessed by responding sensitively to the way in which he uses words, and that the capacity to make such a response can be formed or greatly enhanced by a training in literary criticism. D. H. Lawrence says some excellent things about critics and criticism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Principles of Literary Criticism The following chapters were first prepared for the college lecture room, and, although since rewritten, they doubtless still betray by a certain dull, didactic manner the place of their origin. While directing the work of college classes, I had often looked about for a book that should give a compendious statement of the essentials of literature and the grounds of critical estimate. Finding no such book, I essayed to make one. Two or three books on the subject - born, I judge, of the same want that produced this one - have indeed appeared since these lectures were first written; but their purpose and method are quite different from those I have had in mind. I have attempted neither to expound a philosophy of criticism nor to elaborate a critical method; but simply to state, as plainly as I might, some qualities that by common consent are to be found in all writing deserving to be called literature, and to lay down some fundamental principles that must be assumed in all sound critical judgments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays in Literary Criticism Very sensible that the only value they are likely to have will arise not from any special literary ability or insight of mine, but solely from the constant de light which I have taken in the writers here reviewed, - who have indeed lived with me and in me, till their world has become a genuine part of my own by no means too rich intellectual life. It is in this way, I cannot help thinking, - by soaking themselves thor oughly with a few great writers, instead of spreading their interests so widely as most literary men do, - that educated men of only ordinary capacities such as mine may do most for the service of literature and the culture of their own minds. It is but few who in any age can really aspire to the position of great cr'itics, - critics such as Coleridge, or Hazlitt, or Lamb, or Lowell, or Emerson. But many, by a more intense concentration of their inferior intel lectual powers, might become both good interpreters and, to a certain extent, just critics of a few great.

Download or read book Croce and Literary Criticism Classic Reprint written by O. K. Struckmeyer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Croce and Literary Criticism But it seems that there is a confusion here between difference and differentiation.' Differentiation may be extensive, but how can difference itself be other than in tensive? In the case of pure extension comparison is as unattainable as in the case of pure intension for if the latter is perfect unity, the former is complete disintegration. Pure qualities, indeed, do not submit themselves to valuation, but this is by reason, not of their qualitative, but of their absolute nature. Differences in art value must surely be originally and essentially qualitative; the quantitative element is no more than the mere instrument of our conscious realisation of these qualitative values in terms of difference. But quite probably Croce's meaning is that differences in art value are so essentially qualitative that we can only apprehend them as greater or lesser extensive) manifesta tions of that same absolute quality which we call aesthetic activity. Now, it is a true observation that method of judgment and thing judged are in reality one. If we would judge a work of art our method of judgment must approach as far as possible the reality of the work of art, that is the creation of it. In order to know a thing we must be it. Croce's advocacy of the criterion of expressiveness is then theoretically justified. But in this case can the ideal judgment be said to be any longer a judgment at all? Is it possible for our immediate, absolute and entirely aesthetic intuition of a work of art to be in any true sense a judgment of that work of art? Can criticism be purely contemplative?

One of the most flagrant instances of a disregard of historical continuity in the exposition of a literary subject is that of Hartmann. Not only does he consider the contributions of the ancients to the subject of Aesthetics as of no moment. But declares that Aristotle's Poetics hafi an undeserved reputation I Now we certainly are no advocates of but not only is it right to remember that without the labors of our predecessors we should not be where we are today, but modern critical writings simply cannot be understood without a knowledge of the Poetics - just as ancient philosophy (which also Hartman despises) was a necessary and inevitable precursor of modern thought.
