Book excerpt: Excerpt from Publications of the Modern Language Association of America, Vol. 9 Without, at present, pausing to inquire what may have been the ultimate origin and cause Of such a belief, the Observer will note that, among all these transformation stories, none, from the beginning Of time to the present day, has kept such a hold on the popular imagination as the tale Of the Werwolf. It would be hard to find another with a diffusion so extensive and, at the same time, with a vitality in literature and legend so remarkable. Why is this the case? If we ask why this particular story of the Werwolf should have extended so much farther than others of the same nature, at least one practical answer is sug gested: The wolf himself is one Of the most widely diffused Of animals. Like his brother, the dog, he shares with man the ability to live and thrive in nearly all parts Of the earth. Wherever man, in his wanderings, has penetrated there he has found, and fought, his ancient enemy. Certainly, in the Hunting and Fishing Epoch, his howling could have been no pleasant sound to the primeval man in his rude retreat; in the Pastoral Age his enmity to the grazing sheep must have made him a never-failing topic Of conversa tion; and the glare Of his eyes across the moonlit snow of a winter's night was a terror to the lonely traveller, in any age. Hence it is that few animals have ever been surrounded with so many gloomy superstitions. NO one has a good word for Isengrim. Even among the Romans, children Of the wolf-god of Death and suckled by the she-wolf, he never was in good repute. His distinctive features, in folk-lore, are ravening hunger and bestial ferocity, l he is the symbol of Night and Winter' and the Messenger Of Death.'

This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Publications of the Modern Language Association of America, Vol. 16 From this cursory history of Opinion it will be seen that critics of to-day, with half-a-dozen exceptions, are inclined to believe that Shakspere had no hand whatever in Titus Andronicus, or, - what for our purposes will amount to the same thing, - to hold that he is responsible for only a few scattered passages; and further, that those who do accept the play, relegate it to the colorless period of what has been termed Shakspere's apprenticeship. Moreover, we are forced to admit that the contention as to authorship can never be decided on purely aesthetic grounds, nor yet from external evidence alone, since, as we have seen, this in a measure contradicts itself. Obviously then, agreement can only come from more definite knowledge Of the origin Of the play, -for example, of its sources. If we could only discover them, we should then be admitted to the author's workshop, - and there is surely no better place to study his identity.

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Publications of the Modern Language Association of America, Vol. 20 "Victorian" is now commonly used as a depreciatory epithet, and yet we shall search the history of the last thousand years in vain for a period of more important social, political, and industrial changes than those carried on in the Victorian Era. The changes in the spiritual sphere were no less significant. Professor Henry Sidgwick, a singularly acute and subtle observer, writing to Tennyson's son for the Biography published in 1897, said of the sixties: - During these years we were absorbed in struggling for freedom of thought in the trammels of a historical religion: and perhaps what we sympathise with most in "In Memoriam" at this time, apart from the personal feeling, was the defence of "honest doubt," the reconciliation of knowledge and faith in the introductory poem, and the hopeful trumpet-ring of the lines on the New Year - Ring out the thousand wars of old, Ring in the thousand years of peace, and generally the forward movement of the thought. Well, the years pass, the struggle with what Carlyle used to call "Hebrew old clothes" is over, Freedom is won, and what does Freedom bring us to?

It may be wrong to be happy unless In the grand style, but it is perilously agreeable. And Shall we say that the litera ture of the last three centuries Is Incompetent to put a healthy strain upon the more strenuoris faculties Of the mind? That it does not appeal to and satisfy the mind's loftier desires? That dante, machiavelli, montaigne, bacon, shakespeare, cervantes, pascal, calderon, lessing, and he of Weim'ar in whom carlyle and so many others have fouiid their Univer sity, that none of these set our thinking gear in motion to as good purpose as any ancient of them all?

Tuell thinks that The Original End of Faerie Queene, Book III (m LN was what caused Burleigh's brow to wrinkle, and in a Note on Spenser's Clarion (ibid.) she again identifies Clarion with Spenser's epic muse.
