Royal Society of Literature and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions and Report of the Royal Society of Literature of the United Kingdom, 1919, Vol. 37 This neglect Of modern vernacular poetry is not confined to Europe. In India itself, some people are accustomed to think that classical poetry is the only poetry worth cultivating. Whereas there are many translations and adaptations Of the Older dramas, many editions and commentaries on the Old devotional poetry and the Old philosophical books of India, there are very few translations, even from one Indian vernacular into another, Of the modern products Of the Indian mind. The vernacular literatures have not yet found their fitting place in the centres Of learning. There are scarcely any vernacular libraries, if we mean by a library not a haphazard collection Of books, but an organised unit housed with loving care, catalogued for the benefit Of students and of learned men and women, near and far, and endowed with a life and growing activity Of which we can be proud.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Royal Society of Literature of the United Kingdom, Vol. 18 AT the opening of our session, when we are at a time when 500 years ago the father Of English poetry composed' some, at least, if not the most celebrated of his works, I have thought we might have a little conversation upon the subject of poetry generally. I should have, perhaps, suggested that we might speak Of our meeting as a symposium, but I fear it lacks the essential element which makes that designation appropriate. Now I do not propose to detain you by discussing what poetry is. The courtesy of one of our members, whom I take this opportunity Of thanking, has enabled me to see how this matter has been treated before in this Society, though I was not aware that the ground had been occupied when I undertook to read a paper upon the subject but having had the advantage of reading Mr. Washington Moon's paper, I do not think that our lines cross each other, for I see that the greater part of his paper is original poetry Of his own, and I certainly cannot emulate him in that respect in anything I shall say to night.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Royal Society of Literature of the United Kingdom, 1903, Vol. 24 My range to-night extends over wider limits both of time and space, and, so far as is possible in one paper, I shall endeavour to do something more than merely touch the fringe of a vast subject. It is my purpose to co-ordinate its various branches, and from customs surviving in a mutilated and half-hearted fashion, more particularly within our own Islands, to deduce the origin and meaning of Tree-worship in the past. The subject is one which touches both anthropology and folklore, and in both these aspects it is worthy of consideration by the members of a learned Society such as this.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Royal Society of Literature, Vol. 6: Of the United Kingdom This learned traveller and linguist - one of Denmark's most illustrious sons - paid great attention to the Icelandic tongue; and indeed published a good grammar of it, the result of his three or four years' residence in that island. The objects of this excellent Society were chiefly the publication of select useful books, not only in the language of the island, but also in those foreign languages which are most requisite for education. The books published by the Society are printed in Copenhagen, and thence forwarded to Reikjavik, in Iceland. In addition to its Transactions, the Society has given to the world, in 1817-20, an able edition of the Sturlunga Saga, with learned notes. Also many volumes of 'Iceland's Annals, ' Islands Arb kur; and Liodm li, or 'Minor Poems, ' which were written in Icelandic by S. Olafson, in the latter part of the seventeenth century. Professor Finn Magnussen prefixed to these poems a biographical memoir of the author. Of our English works, a few only have been translated into Icelandic. The following are the names of those which I have found: - Pope's 'Temple of Fame, ' 'Messiah, ' and 'Essay on Man;' Home, on the Scurvy, and Milton's 'Paradise Lost.' The last is thus entitled. Ens Enska Skalds Jon Milton's Paradisar Missir, 'A Translation of the Poet J. Milton's Paradise Lost.' It is composed in the Eddaic verse.
