Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of American Literature
This book is intended as an introduction to the study Of American literature. Although the chapters on the separate authors are wholly distinct, they have been so planned that each Of them prepares the way for its suc cessor, and that all Of them together outline the changing circumstances under which American literature has devel Oped. An attempt has been made to show how each Of the chief American authors influenced his time, and how he in turn was influenced by it; and also to indicate how each Of them was related to the others, both personally and artistically.
Bearing in mind the fact that the student needs to have his attention centered on vital points, all dates and all proper names, and all titles Of books not absolutely essen tial, have been rigorously omitted. Interest has thus been concentrated on the literary career Of each Of the greater writers and on their practice Of the literary art, in the hope and expectation that the student will be encouraged and stimulated to read their works for his own pleasure. After the consideration Of these more important authors, one by one, the writers of less consequence have been discussed briefly in a single chapter; and in like manner a single chapter has been devoted to a summary considera tion Of the condition Of our literature at the end Of the nine teenth century. N 0 living author is named in the text.
