Excerpt from Poets of America Of no country, during the last half-century, is of greater interest to the philosophical student, with respect to its bearing on the future, than that of the United States. My judgment is to this effect, after years in which I have read a good deal of native and foreign comment upon the subject. The reasons for it are generally perceptible in the ensuing chapters, but three may be stated here succinctly: I. American poetry, more than that of Eng land during the period considered, has idealized - often in spired - the national sentiment, the historic movements, of the land whose writers have composed it. 2. This nation already, in the second century of a growth which began not in barbarism, but in political civiliza tion, - is gaining in strength, population, and the liberal.

Excerpt from Poets of America, Vol. 1 EN years have passed since the completion of my critical survey of the poets and poetry of England from the beginning of the present reign. The scheme of the Victorian Poet: included, besides an extended review of acknowledged leaders, a concise analysis of groups forming the general choir of the period represented. The work thus became somewhat complete in scope, and doubtless has served as a critical handbook and means of reference. This incidental result, however, was quite subordinate to the author's main design; and I think that such a fact was evident not only to a professional class, but to all readers interested concerning the spirit and methods of poetry, especially of our English song. To that design I wish shortly to refer, as it is the chief motive of the present volume also. But first I would reproduce a statement made in the Preface to the former work, viz., that the author originally had under taken to write upon the poets of this country and the causes of their successes and failures; that on examina tion he had found modern and radical changes in the conditions afiecting ideal efiort, at home and abroad.

Excerpt from The Female Poets of America Several persons are mentioned in this volume whose lives have been no holydays of leisure: those, indeed, who have not in some way been active in practical duties, are exceptions to the common rule. One was a slave one a domestic servant - one a factory girl: and there are many in the list who had no other time to give to the pursuits of literature but such as was stolen from a frugal and industrious housewifery, from the exhausting cares of teaching, or the fitful repose of sickness. These illustrations of the truth, that the muse is no respecter of conditions, are especially interesting In a country where, though equality is an axiom, it is not a reality, and where prejudice reverses in the application all that theory has affirmed in words. The pro priety of bringing before the world compositions produced amid humble and laborious occupations, has been vindicated by Bishop Potter, with so much force and elegance, in his introduction to the Poems of Maria James, that I regret that the limits of this preface forbid my copying what I should wish every reader of this book to be acquainted with.

Excerpt from The Little Book of American Poets: 1787-1900 It must be remembered that the technique of poetry changes and that work excellent, even supreme, in its own period. May not meet the standard of ours. Such a standard, however, should not be applied to it. Any art must be judged as the expression of its time, by its value as interpreting the age Which produced it. Form changes less, perhaps, from period to period, than the vision, the spirit of the age. The poet of to-day is con cerned With themes unknown to the poet of yesterday. The subject-matter of poetry has, indeed, undergone so radical a change that it will be interesting to note the diversity in content of The Little Book of Amrican Poets and T he Little Book of M odern Verse.

Excerpt from Poems of American History The thread of narrative upon which the poems have been strung together has been made as slight as possible, just strong enough to carrv the reader understandingly from one poem to the next. The notes, too, have been limited to the explanation of such allusions as are not likely to be found in the ordinary works of reference, with here and there an account of the circumstances which caused the lines to be written, or an indication of source, where the source is unusual. Every available source has been drawn upon the works of all the better known and many of the minor American and English poets, anthologies, newspaper collections, magazines, collec tions of Americana and especially of broadsides in a word, American and English poetry generally.
