Excerpt from Chronological Outlines of English Literature The need of tolerably full Annals of English Literature is frequently felt by lecturers and by private students. They often require a colourless outline within which details may be placed, and which may serve to bring into prominence the chronological relations of the facts they deal with. N 0 work hitherto published can be said to occupy, with regard to our literary history, the same position which an ordinary date book does with regard to our political history. The present volume aims at supplying this want. It is divided into two parts. Part I. Brings the Annals of English Literature into connection with general European literature and with history, so that a glance enables us to see the position that a given work occupies in the line of development. We can thus obtain a conspectus of the chief literary work that was being done at any given date, and trace the growth of schools and movements. In fact it is hoped that Part I. Will perform in some degree the same kind of service for the student of literary history as a map does for the student of geography. From the beginning of the sixteenth century each opening presents six columns. The first gives the dates. The second contains the names of the principal English works published in each year. While only first editions are as a rule mentioned. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
