Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literary History of Spanish America Latin America and the United States resemble two neighbors who have long lived side by side, each too busy with private matters to take more than an indifferent if not hostile interest in the other. Recently we North Americans have been taking a broader interest in our neighbors. The building of the Panama Canal has directed our attention to the south. We have discovered that those vast unknown regions are inhabited by human beings worthy of being better known though their character differ widely from our own. So great is our lack of acquaintance with our southern neighbors that few can say with ex-President Taft: - "I know the attractiveness of the Spanish American; I know his highborn courtesy; I know his love of art, his poet nature, his response to generous treatment, and I know how easily he misunderstands the thoughtless bluntness of an Anglo-Saxon diplomacy, and the too frequent lack of regard for the feelings of others that we have inherited." (The Independent, Dec. 18, 1913.) What ex-President Taft thus writes from personal experience, it is possible for others to learn by reading the books written by Spanish Americans. The main characteristics and trend of the Spanish-American mind are revealed in his literature. But shall we call Spanish-American writings literature?

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Spanish Literature The vast progress made in all departments of literary scholarship, and the minuteness with which knowledge is now subdivided, threaten to leave the general reader bewildered at the diversity and bulk of what is presented to him. The exact historian of literature concentrates his attention on so narrow a field that he cannot be expected to appeal to a wide class; those who study what he writes are, or must in some measure grow to be, his fellow-specialists. But the more precisely each little area is surveyed in detail, the more necessary dees it become for us to return at frequent intervals to an inspection of the general scheme of which each topo graphical study is but a fragment magnified. 'it has seemed that of late the minute treatment of a multitude of intellectual phenomena has a little tended to obscure the general movement of literature in each race or country. In a crowd of handbooks, each of high authority in itself, the general trend of influence or thread of evolution may be lost.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spanish Colonial Literature in South America No intelligent person is likely to deny the importance of ofiicial documents as the basis of a nation's history; but these docu ments do not tell the whole story. There are social activities, currents of national' thought, and waves of popular sentiment, which are not fully described either in laws or governmental proclamations. Tradi tion sometimes conveys a knowledge of these aspects of society, but tradition undergoes such modifications in the course of time that it does not render the same account to all later generations or centuries. Only what is written remains fixed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers on Spanish America The great historian of the Spanish conquests in America remarks: It would seem to have been especially ordered by Providence that the discovery of the two great divisions of the American hemi sphere should fall to the two races best fitted to conquer and colonize them. Thus the, northern section was consigned to the An lo-saxon race whose orderly, industrious habits found an ample field for development under its colder skies, and on its more rugged soil; while the southern portion, with its rich tropical products and treasures of mineral wealth, held out the most attractive bait to invite the enterprise of the Spaniards.

This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cambridge Readings In Spanish Literature As there are chronological coincidences of literary productions between Spain and England, so there are corresponding coin cidences of comparative sterility. The eighteenth century is a desolate period in each country; national spirit had sunk to a low point in Spain as in England, and French taste governed the leaders of literary fashion in both lands. Production at this time is thin and uninspired, and the reaction of romanticism was almost a necessity, if literature were to survive at all. It is not for us to estimate the attainments of Blake, Coleridge, Shelley, Byron and Scott, or to compare the literary gifts of each of these men with those of their conceivable Spanish compeers. Be it enough to note that, while England is perhaps somewhat more advanced in point of time, there has been no real solution of continuity in Spain where the romantic spirit has never died out since the heyday of her literary renown. Sufficient proof of this will, possibly, be found in the present volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Handy Bibliographical Guide to the Study of the Spanish Language and Literature written by William Hanssler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handy Bibliographical Guide to the Study of the Spanish Language and Literature: With Consideration of the Works of Spanish-American Writers, for the Use of Students and Teachers of Spanish This little pamphlet has been developed entirely through practical necessities, and it is intended only to serve practical ends. Its chief aim has not been bibliographical completeness, but to offer to the American teacher and student a selection of such works and periodicals as will be really necessary and useful in the study of Spanish. It is hoped that not many books of real importance for the ordinary student have been overlooked and that in every case the best books of reference have been mentioned. Librarians of colleges and of public libraries, wishing to provide the most necessary books for the study of Spanish, may be also materially helped in their selection by referring to this Guide. As each teacher or student should make it his duty to have a library of his own, the attempt has been made to indicate briefly the character of the books listed, and the greatest care has been taken to mention reliable cheap editions. Whoever makes a selection of books is liable to be criticised for admitting certain books and omitting others; but I shall receive thankfully any suggestion or criticism that may be made for the improvement of this little book, by those who are using it. I wish to express my thanks to Mr. Fred. W. Boettler for his critical reading of the manuscript and for his careful reading of the proof.
