Excerpt from Essays in Literary Criticism Very sensible that the only value they are likely to have will arise not from any special literary ability or insight of mine, but solely from the constant de light which I have taken in the writers here reviewed, - who have indeed lived with me and in me, till their world has become a genuine part of my own by no means too rich intellectual life. It is in this way, I cannot help thinking, - by soaking themselves thor oughly with a few great writers, instead of spreading their interests so widely as most literary men do, - that educated men of only ordinary capacities such as mine may do most for the service of literature and the culture of their own minds. It is but few who in any age can really aspire to the position of great cr'itics, - critics such as Coleridge, or Hazlitt, or Lamb, or Lowell, or Emerson. But many, by a more intense concentration of their inferior intel lectual powers, might become both good interpreters and, to a certain extent, just critics of a few great.

Excerpt from Reason and Romanticism: Essays in Literary Criticism In one sense our condition (but not only our condition, but the condition of the whole western world) is hopeless enough. We have carried criticism to the last degree of scepticism, even to the point where it becomes sceptical of itself, and have yet no new synthesis. We have destroyed our religion, and have left the emotions without a control. Emotions - which are individual, dis parate, and therefore contradictory - must be disciplined in a social community.

Excerpt from Countries of the Mind: Essays in Literary Criticism Many of them were written on the occasion of anniversaries. There is something arbitrary, therefore, in grouping them in a single volume; and yet perhaps their association is not really quite so accidental as may at first sight appear. The year 1821, in which Dostoevsky, Baudelaire, Flaubert, and Amiel were born, was obviously a crucial moment in the spiritual history of the nineteenth century; and these four men, animated by a similar spirit of disillusion, are best understood in relation to one another. Dostoevsky, it is true, is treated only incidentally in this volume: but I may be allowed to refer the reader to my earlier book, Fyodor Dostoevsky A Critical Study. The two essays on Shakespeare, the one as general as the other is particular, deal with What is essentially the same subject; while the two essays on Clare and Collins are complementary, as exhibiting two directly contrasted types of poetic sensibility.

Excerpt from Literary Types: Being Essays in Criticism I have applied the title Of Literary Types to the following essays in criticism, because each writer that I have treated of seems to me to develop a particular phase in literary history. Landor I have termed Dramatist, not because he wrote one or two plays, but because all the literary work he did was essentially dramatic in intention and execution. I have appended the epithet of Man of Letters to De Quincey for the reason that no narrower term seems able to adequately express his compass or versatility. The words Essayist, Philosopher, and Novelist, apply naturally, without need of any explanation here, to Lamb, Carlyle, and Dickens. A word is, perhaps, necessary to explain why I have set down the name Poet as an epithet distinctive Of Coleridge, considering what I have said Of him in the following pages. I have done so because he not only was a pre-eminent poet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Essays in Criticism: First Series Several of the Essays which are here collected and reprinted had the good or the bad fortune to be much criticised at the time of their first appearance. I am not now going to in ict upon the reader a reply to those criticisms for one or two explanations which are desirable, I shall elsewhere, perhaps, be able some day to find an opportunity; but, indeed. It is not in my nature, - some of my critics would rather say, not in my power, - to dispute on behalf of any Opinion, even my own, very obstinately. To try and approach truth on one side after another, not to strive or cry, nor to persist in pressing forward, on any one side, with violence and self-will, - it is only thus, it seems to me, that mortals may hope to gain any vision of the mysterious Goddess, whom we shall never see except in outline, but only thus even in outline. He who will do nothing but fight impetu ously towards her on his own, one, favourite, parti cular line, is inevitably destined to run his head into the folds of the black robe in which she is wrapped.

Excerpt from Creative Criticism: Essays on the Unity of Genius and Taste Three of the four essays in this volume have already appeared in print. The first, "The New Criticism," was delivered as a lecture at Columbia University in 1910, and was published, under the title of "Literary Criticism," in the Columbia University Lectures on Literature; "Dramatic Criticism and the Theatre" was published in the fourth volume of Essays and Studies by Members of the English Association (Oxford: Clarendon Press); and "Creative Connoisseurship" was written as a letter to an artist friend and was printed in the New York Evening Post. All of them have undergone more or less alteration, and a few passages taken from an article on "The Seven Arts and the Seven Confusions" in the Seven Arts have been added to them. The essays are now gathered together in the hope that they may stimulate interest in a province of aesthetic theory which has been largely neglected by the English-speaking world.

Excerpt from Definitions: Essays in Contemporary Criticism The unity of this book is to be sought in the point of view of the writer rather than in a sequence of chapters developing a single theme and arriving at categorical conclusions. Literature in a civilization like ours, which is trying to be both sophisticated and democratic at the same moment of time, has so many sources and so many manifestations, is so much in volved with our social background, and is so much a question of life as well as of art, that many doors have to be opened before one begins to approach an understanding. The method of informal definition which I have followed in all these essays is an attempt to open doors through which both writer and reader may enter into a better comprehension of what novel ists, poets, and critics have done or are trying to ac complish. More than an entrance upon many a vexed controversy and hidden meaning I cannot expect to have achieved in this book; but where the door would not swing wide I have at least tried to put one foot in the crack. The sympathetic reader may find his own way further; or may be stirred by my endeavor to a deeper appreciation, interest, and insight. That.
