Excerpt from Essays, Vol. 4: Critical and Imaginative Patriots as we are, as well as Cosmopolites, how relieving, how refreshing, how invigorating, and how elevating to our senses and our souls, to fly from politics to poetry - from the Honourable House to the Immortal Homer - from the vapid feuds of placemen and reformers, to the deadly wrath of nature's heroic - sons from the helpless limp of any middle-aged Smith, to the elastic lameness of old Vulcan - from O'Connell and Hunt, with their matchless blacking, to "Atrides, king of men, and Thetis' godlike son!" We are no great Greek scholars; but we can force our way, vi et armis, through the Iliad. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Oxford English Prize Essays, Vol. 4 The attainment of truth is, or ought to be, the great Object of our intellectual pursuits, which are important only as they fit us to discharge with propriety the parts we are severally called to act. But as we are very liable to be deceived, this attainment involves an investigation into the tests by which we may discriminate between truth and error, and learn to recognise the one while we reject the other: in other words, it involves an inquiry into the nature Of evidence in general, and the peculiarities which distinguish the different forms of proof which the human mind is capable of receiving.

Excerpt from Four Essays, Vol. 3 The late Murray Anthony Potter, at the time of his sudden death, was amassing notes for three books which he had long contemplated: a treatise on the horse as a character in epic poetry; a study of Petrarch; a group of essays on the Renaissance. For these, and for his various University courses, he left an abundance of matter in the form of references, memoranda, detached paragraphs, and outlines of lectures, but very little in the way of finished composition. The best that could be done with most of his papers was, therefore, to de posit them in the Harvard Library, for the use of investi gators in the same fields. Some pages, however, seemed to lend themselves, without too great departure from the writer's intention, to an arrangement which would make them accessible to the reading public. Hence this little volume, prepared by a few colleagues of the author and offered by his Department, in token of friendship and gratitude.

Excerpt from Critical and Miscellaneous Essays, Vol. 4 of 5 The next picture that strikes na is not a family-piece, but a battle-piece: deutsch-wagram, in the hot weather of 1809; whither Varnhagen, with a great change of place and plan, has wended, purposing now to be a soldier, and rise by fighting the tyrannous French. It is a fine picture; with the author's best talent in it. Deutsch-wagram village is filled with soldiers of every uniform and grade; in all manner of movements and employments; arch-duke Karl is heard fantasying for an hour on the pianoforte, before his serious generalissimo duties begin. The Marchfeld has its Mp, the Marchfeld is one great camp of many nations, - Germans, Hungarians, Italians, Mad shars; advanced sentinels walk steady, drill-sergeants bustle, drums beat; Austrian generals gallop, in blue-gray coat and red breeches, combining simplicity with conspicuousness. Faint on our southwestern horizon appears the Stephane thurm (saint-stephen's Steeple) of Vienna; south, over the Danube, are seen endless French hosts defiling towards as, with dust and glitter, along the hill-roads; one may hope.

Excerpt from Literary Essays IV James Russell Lowell, Vol. 4 of 10: In Ten Volumes In 1675 Edward Phillips, the elder of Milton's nephews, published his Theatrum Poetarum. In his Preface and elsewhere there can be little doubt that he reflected the aesthetic principles and literary judgments of his now illustrious uncle, who had died in obscurity the year before. The great poet who gave to English blank verse the grandeur and compass of organ-music, and who in his minor poems kept alive the traditions of Fletcher and Shakespeare, died with no foretaste, and yet we may believe as confident as ever, of that "immortality of fame" which he tells his friend Diodati he was "meditating with the help of Heaven" in his youth. He who may have seen Shakespeare, who doubtless had seen Fletcher, and who perhaps personally knew Jonson, lived to see that false school of writers whom he qualified as "good rhymists, but no poets," at once the idols and the victims of the taste they had corrupted.
