Description

Excerpt from English Literature of the Nineteenth Century: On the Plan of the Author's "Compendium of English Literature" And Supplementary to It; Designed for Colleges and Advanced Classes in Schools, as Well as for Private Reading The second marked change in my book results, of course, from the necessity of keeping abreast with the intellectual progress of the age, - the busiest-brained generation the world has ever known. During the last fourteen 'years, a large number of authors have emerged, from greater or less obscurity of reputa tion, into assured prominence in their several departments of literature; and one of my most delicate tasks has been to set fifth in these pages a just record of such developments; and no emirt has been spared to determine fairly, as far as I could, the Mpamtive attitude, as well as the absolute literary status, of every prominent writer. That this has been, all along, a work Of great and constant difficulty and embarrassment, I need hardly I that I shall secure a unanimous verdict in favor of my sue eess upon this point, it would be idle to hepc; but of this I feel sure, that the most lenient criticism will be extended to me from those who have most widely viewed and critically examined this inimitable field.
