Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Australian Literature Australian Literature begins to assume some definiteness of form. Though still of utter immaturity, it is gathering a certain individuality of its own, and asserts its usefulness in its own department and after its own fashion. During half-a-century it has had of necessity to be judged entirely by an alien standard, the test being always what the English reader was likely to think of it, what an English critic would be inclined to say of it. But now, less frequently do we ask what other people have to say about Australian literature; we are growing more and more concerned to know what it is that Australian literature has to say to ourselves. And, of a certainty, we begin to realize that its writers, though their rank is far from the very highest, have a power of raising in Australian minds emotions that are peculiar, and agreeable, and such as are not elsewhere by us to be attained.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginnings of an Australian Literature Even under the subsequent Roman dominion, Greek remained the literary language of the civilised world. St. Paul's very Epistle to the Romans, as well as the rest of the sacred books on which the Christian religion is based, was written, not in the local tongue of J udea, nor in that of Imperial Rome, but in the language of Greece. The whole of the seven apostolic churches of Christendom arose in what were Greek Asiatic colonies, and the speech and culture of this marvellous people long outlived the political downfall of the mother-country.

Book excerpt: The Awful Australian This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!
