Download or read book An Essay on Critical Appreciation written by Ralph W. Church dec'd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-14 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1938, An Essay on Critical Appreciation aims to provide a language suited for the explication on beauty. This explication is not based merely on emotion but is motivated by contemplation and discrimination. By virtue of being rendered in a discourse, an appreciation can claim to be critical or discriminating and ‘beauty’ can be said to have characteristics. The search of such a language takes the author through the contemplation on the meaning of ‘beauty’, entertaining contrary views, and reaching at an understanding of the aesthetic situation. This book will be of interest to students of English literature, philosophy and art.
Download or read book Hazlitt on English Literature An Introduction to the Appreciation of Literature written by William Hazlitt and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present selection of Hazlitt's critical essays has been planned to serve two important purposes. In the first place, it provides the materials for an estimate of the character and scope of Hazlitt's contributions to criticism and so acquaints students with one of the greatest of English critics. And in the second place, what is perhaps more important, such a selection, embodying a series of appreciations of the great English writers, should prove helpful in the college teaching of literature. There is no great critic who by his readableness and comprehensiveness is as well qualified as Hazlitt to aid in bringing home to students the power and the beauty of the essential things in literature. There is, in him, a splendid stimulating energy which has not yet been sufficiently utilized.
