Excerpt from A Series of Text-Books on the English Language: First Lessons in Composition; Composition and Rhetoric; A Short Course in Literature; And for and Higher Institutions of Learning: A Manual of English Literature; A Manual of American Literature English literature, strictly speaking, does not mean the litera ture of England. There have been in England several successive races, each having a literature of its own. The old Celts, still represented by the Welsh in the west of England, had a literature, rather extensive too, which is no more English than the Hebrew is. The anglo-saxons, through a period of several centuries, culminating in the time of Alfred the Great, had a literature, some of it of a high order. This, though nearer to the English than any of the others are, though indeed the parent of the English, is not itself English; it is anglo-saxon. The Normans, who settled in England in the twelfth century, brought with them a noble literature. But it was norman-french, not English. The ecclesiastics of the English Church, from the second century, possibly from the first, down to the time of the Reformation, and even a little later, had among them a literature of their own, which is very copious, and some of it of a high order. But it is church-latin, not English. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
