Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Poetry and Romances of Spain I had sketched a short history of the popular poetry of Spain, and had endeavoured to trace the changes which extraordinary political vicissitudes had produced upon the literature of that interesting country; but, to confess the truth, the more I read, and the more I thought on the subject, the less was I satisfied with the information obtained, or with the deductions I was disposed to draw. I choose rather to own that I was groping about in the twilight, than to make a parade of the few memorials which I have been able to gather together out of the ruins - the splendid ruins - of other days. And I suspect, as a man grows older, if his honesty grow with his years, he will set a less value upon the sum of contribution to the mass of knowledge which he is enabled to bring.

Download or read book Legends Romances of Spain Classic Reprint written by Lewis Spence and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Legends Romances of Spain I have made an earnest endeavour to provide English readers with a conspectus of Spanish romantic literature as expressed in its cantares de gesta, its chivalric novels; its romanceros or ballads, and some of its lighter aspects. The reader will find full accounts and summaries of all the more important works under each of these heads, many of which have never before been described in English. If the perusal of this book leads to the more general study of the noble and useful Castilian tongue on the part of but a handful of those who read it, its making will have been justified. The real brilliance and beauty of these tales lie behind the curtains of a language unknown to most British people, and can only be liberated by the spell of study. This book contains merely the poor shadows and reflected wonders of screened and hidden marvels. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Romantic Legends of Spain A word regarding the circumstances under which this translation was made will be pardoned by all children of dear mothers. Mrs. Cornelia Frances Bates (1826 a graduate of Mount Holyoke in the days of Mary Lyon and the widow of a Congregational minister, took up the study of Spanish at the age of seventy-one. Until her death ten years later, the proverbial ten years of labor and sorrow, her Spanish readings and translations were a keen intellectual delight. Her Spanish Bible, from which she had committed many passages to memory, was found at her death no less worn than her English one. Even a few hours before dying, she repeated in Spanish, without the failure of a syllable, the Shepherd's Psalm and the Lord's Prayer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ballads and Songs of Spain The accompanying ballad represents a summons to arms supposed to have been received by the alcayde or commandant of some fortress in possession of the Christians - one of those grim strongholds poised on the lofty crags that border the fertile Vegas, or plains, of Granada or Malaga. These fortresses, the ruins of many of which may still be spied throughout the provinces of Andalusia, were, in the period preceding the siege of Granada, of vast importance to either conflicting power, as through their underlying passes alone could the Moors prosecute their forays into Christian territory, or the latter urge their convoys of provisions or trains of artillery to join the beleaguering armies of King Ferdinand.
