Summary, etc | An attempt to estimate in human values the development of literary life and thought from Saxon times down to the end of 1916. A chronicle of the literature of each page is preceded by a pen picture of its social and political environment, and thus English literature is presented throughout as an organic expression of national life rather as an academic by-product. <br/>Special features are the rise and growth of American Literature, and the work of distinguished modern poets and prose writers; the volume is illustrated by a wealth od quotations ranging from Chaucer to Chesterton. The work is not only a commentary on the past, but is also a critical exposition of the chief factors in the life and thought of modern times. |
