Excerpt from Studies of the Greek Poets, Vol. 2 of 2 Two conditions, both of which the Greeks enjoyed in full per fection at the moment of their first dramatic energy, seem to be requisite for the production of a great and thoroughly national drama. These are, first, an era of intense activity or a period succeeding immediately to one of excitement, by which the na tion has been nobly agitated; secondly, a public worthy of the damatist 'spurring him on by its enthusiasm and intelligence to the creation of high works of art. A glance at the history of the drama in modern times will prove how necessary these con ditions are. It was the gigantic effort which we English people made in our struggle with Rome and Spain, it was the rousing of our keenest thought and profoundest emotion by the Reforma tion, which prepared us for the Elizabethan drama, by far the greatest, next to the Greek, in literature. The nation lived in ao tion, and delighted to see great actions imitated. Races in repose or servitude, like the Hebrews under the Roman empire, may, in their state of spiritual exaltation and by effort of pondering on the mysteries cf God and man, give birth to new theosophies; but it requires a free and active race, in Which young and turbulent blood is flowing, to produce a drama. In England, again, at that time, there was a great public. All classes crowded to the thea tres. London, in whose streets and squares martyrs had been burned, on whose quays the pioneers of the Atlantic and Pacific, after disputing the Indies with Spain, lounged and enjoyed their leisure, supplied an eager audience, delighting in the dreams of poets which recalled to mind the realities of their own lives, ap preciating the passion of tragedy, enjoying the mirth of comic in eident. _the men who listened to Othello had both done and suf fered largely; their own experience was mirrored in the scenes of blood and struggle set before them. These two things, therefore - the awakening of the whole English nation to activity, and the presence of a free and haughty audience - made our drama great.

Excerpt from Introductions to the Study of the Greek Classic Poets: Designed Principally for the Use of Young Persons at School and College In submitting this work to the public, I trust I may justify myself against any charge of individual presumption, by alleging the apparent usefulness of the undertaking, if well executed, and also that the matter itself is principally, though not exclusively, intended for young persons. It is possible, indeed, that a perusal of these introductions may not be unserviceable to many well educated readers of any age, and of either sex; but I do not directly address myself to graduates of any degree. By those who are still called boys, I hope the teaching of him, who has ceased to be one, will be as kindly received as it is affectionately given. My wish is to enable youthful student to form a more just and liberal judgement of the characters and merits of the Greek poets than he has commonly an opportunity of doing at school; and for that purpose to habituate his mind to sound principles of literary criticism.

Excerpt from The Greek Poets: An Anthology As regards classical literature, the winnowing fan of Time has in a large measure performed this task. When it is remembered that out of all the vast mass of prose and verse that was produced during the palmy days of Hellenic civilization, scarcely more than six thousand lines remain as the product of a century and a half of the intensest productivity, that a multitude of those who were highly regarded in their own time, are now nothing more than a name, the extent of the loss may be easily appreciated.

Excerpt from Lectures on Greek Poetry The lectures contained in this volume were given during the last four years from the Chair of Poetry in the University of Oxford. With these lectures is also now incorporated the substance of a paper read before the Classical Association at its General Meeting at Birmingham in October 1908. While the lectures were planned in relation to one another as parts of a single continuous scheme, the circumstances of their delivery, at long intervals, and to an audience which (like poetry itself) is being perpetually renewed, implied a large amount of recapitulation and repetition. In revising them for publication, I have thought it best not to alter their form very materially in this respect; and I hope that the amount of repetition still left will not be found excessive, while it may serve to emphasise more effectively the central ideas by which I have been guided throughout, particularly as regards the poetical value of the Greek poets, and the way in which Greek poetry, as poetry, may best be read so as to disengage its living virtue. Like the lectures on English poets already published last year under the title of The Springs of Helicon, this volume deals with one chapter in the larger and more comprehensive study of the Progress of Poetry.

Excerpt from Studies of the Greek Poets The Essays which compose this book were written at intervals during the last eight years. Some of them have already appeared in the "North British" and the "Westminster" Reviews. It will be seen at a glance that I have not attempted a complete or systematic review of Greek Poetry. My purpose has been to select special points for treatment; nor have I aimed at an exhaustive discussion of the subjects which I have selected. To bring Greek literature home to the general reader, and to apply to the Greek poets the same sort of criticism as that which modem classics receive, has been my principal object It is possible that, with this aim in view, I may have been led into extravagances of style - especially in the Essays on Pindar, Aristophanes, and the Idyllic Poets.
