Excerpt from Outline History of English and American Literature: For Use in Colleges and Schools It has been ray object to compress into this book the minimum of what every young person should know of the literature of our own country and England, even if his education is strictly scientific. I believe that specializing in any one period is more likely to prove fruitful and of benefit to the student if preceded by a general review of the development of thought and expression in the English-speaking peoples. The book is intended as a text-book for a course of three hours a week for a school year of thirty-three weeks. As a rule I have aimed at keeping the biographical matter and the critical matter in separate paragraphs, in order that the teacher may use his discretion in requiring biographical matter to be memorized (for there must be a certain amount of drudgery insisted on in the study of literature) and critical matter merely to be read. I have, however, endeavored to keep in view the needs and limitations of a text-book, and have omitted many names that would find a place in a manual or pocket encyclopedia. American literature is treated on a fuller plan than is English literature, the object being to make one book and one course suffice for an introduction to both subjects.

Volume I of The Cambridge History of American Literature was originally published in 1997, and covers the colonial and early national periods and discusses the work of a diverse assemblage of authors, from Renaissance explorers and Puritan theocrats to Revolutionary pamphleteers and poets and novelists of the new republic. Addressing those characteristics that render the texts distinctively American while placing the literature in an international perspective, the contributors offer a compelling new evaluation of both the literary importance of early American history and the historical value of early American literature.

The short reigns of his son Edward VI. and his daughter Mary were followed by the Historical DEGREES0IiS reign of his daughter Elizabeth (1558Sketoh. 1603). The Scotch Stuart, James I., occupied the throne from 1603 to 1625, and his son Charles I. succeeded him. From the literary point of view the culmination of the period lies between the years 1590 and 1610, as Shakespeare's greatest works were produced then. But the preceding years were preparatory, the forces were gathering, and their influence was continued after the death of the preeminent genius who gave them the fullest expression. Milton's " Comus " was presented in 1634, and may be regarded as the last great literary production of the age.
