Excerpt from The Meaning and Value of Poetry The business of the scientist in his laboratory is, from first to last, with things as they are in themselves. His dominant purpose is to ascertain fact as fact - to learn, in any given case, what is, and the processes by which it came to be as it is. In order to reach his generalizations and establish his laws, he observes with the most patient atten tion, he analyzes with the most scrupulous care, all the phenomena he can bring together for investigation; follows up every clue and suggestion; applies every test within his reach; and though, as an aid in his task, he may ofien frame tentative conclusions and hypotheses, he is never satis fied with such - never gives them out to the world, or re gards them for himself, as more than tentative - but seeks always to substitute for them the reality of rigid and irre fragable proof. Now, such work obviously demands, before all things, a mind free from prejudice and prepossessions, a single eye for the matter in hand, reservation of judgment, and an absolute willingness to accept without hesitation or12 the meaning and value OF poetry.

Excerpt from Select Poems IN the study of poetry, appreciation is of first importance. This cannot be gained if the pupil must continually interrupt his reading to turn to a dictionary. With this in mind, the introduction to each poem has been carefully prepared to present the situation; and the text has been freely annotated in order to furnish a miniature dictionary ready to the hand of the pupil. Many pupils have no dictionaries at home, and have little, if any, time for study in school. For these reasons words are explained in the notes that would otherwise have been omitted.

Excerpt from A Poet's Anthology of Poems These words deserve the attention which their author evidently (for he repeats them elsewhere) desired them to have They deserve it because they embody a response to a question which has never been directly answered, and perhaps never will be answered in the fixed form of a definition, the old question - What is poetry?

Excerpt from Poetry and Time Among the greatest English poets, some by their poetical work, some by the utterance in prose of their deliberate reflections, have supplied us with materials from which we can construct a definition of Poetry: a definition resting not upon mere authority, but upon a scientific analysis of the facts of human feeling, thought, and expression. This definition might perhaps be set down and annotated in some such words as these: - Poetry is the expression in speech, more or less rhythmical, of the aesthetic activity of the human spirit, the creative activity by which the world is presented to our consciousness. But this is not enough: it gives us only Poetry in the abstract, and makes no distinction between good and bad, greater and lesser poetry. The two necessary further stages are these: good poetry is not merely the expression of our intuitions, it is the masterly expression of rare, complex, and difficult states of consciousness: and great poetry, the poetry which has power to stir many men and stir them deeply, is the expression of our consciousness of this world, tinged with man's universal longing for a world more perfect, nearer to the heart's desire. By definition, and in a plain prosaic way, we are all poets, all makers of our own world: but the great poets re-make it for us - they take this very world of time in which we live, and by an incantation they rebuild it for us, so that for an instant we see it under a light that is not the light of Time. This definition, it will be seen, covers not only the more ordinary examples of poetical expression, but includes also the utterance of desires more profound and more far-reaching in their significance, and consequently more difficult to submit to any effective analysis.

Excerpt from Poems and Prose When a man reaches sixty years of age he has seen enough to estimate most Of the things of earth at their real value. If he has any powers of Observation at all he has found that much that seems solid is mere shadow, and much that is subdued and seemingly humble and in the background, is after all the true basis of all the solidity that may belong to human affairs. The frown that would once have daunted him has lost its terror, for he has learned its impotence and the smile that once would have spurred him on to vanity has lost its power, for he has found its emptiness, nay, even perhaps its falsity. SO in presenting this volume to our readers in the autumn of life we do so, not longing for the praise of men, or craving for the blame of others, but just expecting it to be received at its true value, whatever that may be. If but one soul is convinced, that even in this doubting end Of the century the real things are the things Of faith, hope, and love, and God, our object is attained and our labour is not in vain. A book may be a better one for a simple man to read because a simple man has written it, and it is possible that the records of a man mixing with all classes, doing business in many towns, and sowing beside all waters, in his own blundering untrained way, may wake more sympathy and fellow feeling than would the cold superiority of a giant intellect and a univ my smug.

Excerpt from The Making of Poetry: A Critical Study of Its Nature and Value This book might be called a critical essay to ward a consistent View of poetry. I claim no finality for this view. I only hope that it Will be of some real service to teachers and students Whose interests and activities centre in literature; to the gentle-hearted reader Whose mind, untouched by the sneaping frost of complacency, is eager to find the well-springs of his higher pleasures; to the man of affairs, professedly literary in taste or not, Whose purged vision enables him to recognise in poetry the highest manifestation of principles that control all his best practical attainments.

Excerpt from An Anthology of Recent Poetry The best poetry is always about the Earth itself and all the strange and lovely things that compose and inhabit it. When a 'great poet' sets himself the task of some 'big theme, ' he needs only to hold, as it were, a magnifying glass to the earth. We, who are born and live here, like very much to imagine other worlds, and we have even mentally constructed such another in which to exist after dying on this one; but we were careful to make it a glorified ver sion of our own earth with everything we most love here intensified and improved to the utmost stretch of human imagination.

Excerpt from The Poetical Works of George Meredith IN view of the publication of this complete edition of Meredith's poetical works in one volume, I have been asked to add to it a few notes, in the first instance to explain mythological and historical allusions, not equally familiar to all readers; and in the second place, to explain the subject-matter of particular poems and passages. The notes are purely explanatory, and in no sense critical or appreciative. It is hoped that their seclusion at the end of the volume will render them inoffensive to those who have no use for them. In preparing these notes I have had the advantage of possessing records and memories of conversations in former years with the poet himself, both on the subject of the general ideas expressed in his poems, and on the meaning and purport of particular passages.
