Excerpt from The Sky Line in English Literature In the matter of the chapter headings, we have been guided by the feeling that the important thing to be kept in mind in studying the literature of our English ancestors and cousins is that it is the liter ature of an expanding life.

Ter ritorial expansion and intellectual expansion alike have been the marks of the history of those peoples, and for that reason we have dealt with various epochs in this little history as epochs of expansion, epochs in which Englishmen have made themselves at home in new worlds.
