A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Chronology is the backbone of history of the history of literature as of any other. Perhaps no tool is more useful to a student of literature than a well-made table of wellselected titles and dates. Of late years no better implement of this kind has been devised than Mr. Frederick Ryland s Chronological Outlines of English Literature, published in 1890. Mr. Ryland planned a work which should occupy toward literary history the position a date-book holds toward political history. In his Part I. he sought to bring 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 ;and in his Part II. he gave an alphabetical list of authors with their principal works. Mr. Ryland hoped that Part I. would perform in some degree the same kind of service for the student of literary history as a map does for the student of geography, while Part II. could be utilized in studying literature from the biographical point of view. That Mr. Ryland has been successful in his hope is the testimony of all who have had occasion to use his invaluable manual; and the more it has been used, the more fully are its merits recognized.
