Excerpt from Representative English Prose and Prose Writers The present volume is offered as a contribution to the study of English Prose in its representative Historical Periods, in its representative Literary Forms and in some of its Representative Authors. That portion Of our prose is especially discussed that dates its beginning from the reign of Elizabeth in the writings of Bacon and Hooker and extends to the present decade in the pages Of Carlyle. This is English Prose Proper. As we advance, careful attention will be given to the discussion Of English Prose Style as visibly expressed in a few Of our prominent prose writers. The work will be literary, throughout, in its method, subject matter, and purpose, as distinct from that order of treatment that might be termed technical or speculative. A detailed account Of the life and times of the separateauthors examined will thus be aside from our main design, such allusions being made onlv in so far as they serve to cast light on the particular author's work as an author.
