Excerpt from Longmans' Handbook of English Literature, Vol. 4
It is a period sufficiently remote to gain the charm of distance, and the Spectator and Tom Jones carry us back into a world very different from our own. But it is sufficiently near to make us feel we are in living con tact with it, and Swift and Pope and Johnson are far more real persons to us than Shakspere or Bacon or Milton can be.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the eighteenth century, a fascinating period in English literature, as great writers such as Swift and Addison published works that pushed the boundaries of prose and poetry. While the language of the era, with its elegant couplets and polished prose, may seem distant to us, the ideas and stories resonate powerfully today. The author traces the shift in poetry from artificial to simple forms, and describes the emergence of the prose novel and psychological depth in literature. This book offers a fresh perspective on the literary and cultural landscape of the eighteenth century, exploring the spirit of a time when the Enlightenment's pursuit of reason coexisted with a growing awareness of human emotion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780259172246_0
