Excerpt from A Manual of English Literature In general, I _may say that the substance Of this Manual is Professor Morley's, and that the construction Of it is mine. Even with reference to the substance Of the book, however, I Ought to explain that it differs in many, respects from the First Sketch. I have retained from that work the essential part Of'every thing bearing directly upon English literature; but I have tried to leave out every thing whose relation to English literature was either indirect, or, for American readers, bewildering: such as, on the one hand, extended references to Italian, French, and Spanish literatures; or, on the other hand, a multitude Of. Incidental allusions - genealogical, domestic, local, and titular - that would perplex no student in England, but are sure to perplex most students in America. But my changes in the substance Of the First Sketch have not been confined to those Of omission. Wherever I. Thought it desirable, I have freely added materials not in the original work: for example, all Of the Introduction excepting the first section several pages Of the chapters on the fifteenth century; the larger part of the account Of the nineteenth century; besides many Of the paragraphs Of introduction and transition scattered through the book. But the most Of my work upon the substance Of this Manual cannot be here Specified; it consists Of innumerable small bits Of alteration and addition, fitted in and mixed up with the original materials, and no longer distinguishable from them except by a careful collation 'of the two books-item by item.

Excerpt from A Handbook of English Literature This Manual was first issued in 1874 as one of a series intended primarily to assist fiddidates in pre paring for the Civil Service examinations. But in these examinations English literature has never proved a particularly attractive subject; and in the second edition of 1880 an attempt was made to extend the utility of thexbook as a work of reference. In this character it achieved a certain success, and went out of print. In 1895 the publishers decided to re issue it with sucheigévision and supplement as might serve to bring it down to the present date. This task, rendered more formidable by two-and-twenty years of dictionaries biographies, histories, and special monographs, the original compiler had neither the leisure nor the inclination to undertake and with his entire concurrence, it was entrusted to the capable and experienced hands of Mr. W. Hall ture at Queen's College, London. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Manual of English Literature: A Text-Book for Schools and Colleges In collecting materials for this work, besides a diligent use of the many printed volumes on the subject, the mere enumeration of which would fill several pages, I have had special assistance from various quarters, which it is proper that I should specifically acknowledge. Asa I. Fish, Esq., of Philadelphia, has given me the unrestricted use of his rare and costly collection of books on early English literature. On the subject of the English Version of the Bible, I have had valuable suggestions from Rev. C. P. Krauth, D. D., Professor in the University of Pennsylvania, besides the free use of his exceedingly valuable and rare collection of books on that subject.

Excerpt from A Manual of English Prose Literature: Biographical and Critical, Designed Mainly to Show Characteristics of Style Little need be said to justify taking up Prose by itself. In criticising Poetry we are met by very different con siderations from those that occur in the other kinds of composition. What is more, many people not particularly interested in Poetry are anxious for practical purposes to have a good knowledge of Prose style; and when Prose and Poetry are discussed in the same volume, Prose is generally sacrificed to Poetry.

Excerpt from A Manual of English Literature: And of the History of the English Language, From With Numerous Specimens When the South of Britain became a part of the Roman empire, the inhabitants, at least of the towns, seem to have adopted generally the Latin language and applied them selves to the study of the Latin literature. The diffusion among them of this new taste was one of the first means employed by their politic conquerors, as soon as they had fairly established themselves in the island, to rivet their do minion. A more efficacious they could not have devised; and, happily, it was also the best fitted to turn their subjus gation into a blessing to the conquered people.

Excerpt from English Literature, Considered as an Interpreter of English History: Designed as a Manual of Instruction It will be observed that the remoter periods of the literature are those in which the historic teachings are the most distinctly visible we see them from a vantage ground, in their full scope, and in the interrelations of their parts. Although in the more modern periods the number of writers is greatly increased, we are too near to discern the entire period, and are in danger of becoming partisans, by reason of our limited view. Especially is this true of the age in which we live. Contemporary history is but party-chronicle the true philosophic history can only be written when distance and elevation give due scope to our vision. The principle I have laid down is best illustrated by the great literary masters. Those of less degree have been treated at less length, and many of them will be found in the smaller print, to save space. Those who study the book should study the small print as carefully as the other. After a somewhat elaborate exposition of English literature, I could not induce myself to tack on an inadequate chapter on. American literature; and, besides, I think that to treat the two subjects in one volume would be as incongruous as to write a joint biography of Marlborough and Washington. American literature is too great and noble, and has had too marvelous a development to be made an appendix to English literature.
