Excerpt from Scottish Literature: Character Influence These ten connected Essays deal with two sub jeats, the character or habit of Scottish Literature (chapters I.-V.) and the in uence which that literature has exerted on others (chapters VI. The book is not offered as a history, though in places, where details are handled in support of the argument, it may assume the manner of narrative. It claims to be mainly critical, and it carries with it the author's confession that he knows how diffi cult it is to set forth a corporate literary character or to indicate the direction of a literary in uence; as it is to win assent to a general judgement, when the survey is so wide, when the proofs are not at all points complete, and when there are prepossessions, not always literary, which decline to be adjusted. Yet the venture seemed worth making, partly because of these risks, but chie y because the way was untrodden. The author consoles himself that, if his interpretation prove inadequate, he may have served some purpose in reconstituting the evidence.
