Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Waverley Manual: Or Hand-Book of the Chief Characters, Incidents, and Descriptions in the Waverley Novels, With Critical Breviates From Various Sources Scott, both as a man and a writer, seems to be in danger of passing - we cannot conceive why - out of the knowledge of the rising generation. Doubtless there will be found at most railway stations cheap copies of Scott's Poems and of the Waverley Novels, which travellers purchase, one by one, that they may read them on the journey as they read any worthless trash, and then throw them away. But the instances are rare, we suspect, in which, even among educated persons, young men or young women under five and twenty, know any thing at all, either of what Scott wrote, or of what he did. Now, we look upon this fact, if a fact it be, as a great public misfortune. You cannot find a surer test of the habits of thought in a people than by taking note of the light literature which is most in favour with the young of its edu cated classes. When we find such great works as Waverley, Guy Hamming, and the Antiquary, cast aside, in order that young ladies and young gentle men may break their hearts over the sorrows of bigamists and adulterers, we confess that the im pression made upon our minds is not very attering - we do not say to the tastes, but to the moral sense of the age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Waverley Synopses: A Guide to the Plots and Characters of Scott's "Waverley Novels" The kindly reception accorded the au thor's earlier Shaksperian Synopses and Synopses of Dickens's Novels renders an extended preface to a similar work on Scott unnecessary. This mighty magician who has rolled back the current of time and con jured up before our living senses the men and manners of days which have long since passed away, will ever remain a vital force in letters. A review of his work, such as the present handbook endeavors to af ford, only serves to emphasize the towering genius of the man. His stories cover a pe riod of no less than: seven c'fentu'rim; they introduce more than fifteen hundred speak ing characters, from every.1valk in life king and peasant, countess and fishwoman, Crusader and Highland. Medieval baron and modern man of law, courtier and wandering minstrel, proud lady and simple lassie - and in every period and so ciety Scott seems equally at home.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare Studied in Three Plays "Our dramatic literature is our greatest literature. It is the best thing we have done. Dante may overtop Milton, but Shakespeare surpasses both. He is our finest achievement; his plays our noblest possession; the things in the world most worth thinking about. To live daily in his company, to study his works with minute and loving care - in no spirit of pedantry searching for double endings, but in order to discover their secret, and to make the spoken word tell upon the hearts of man and woman - this might have been expected to produce great intellectual if not moral results."
