  • The American Mind: The E. T. Earl Lectures

    by Bliss Perry ...
    Many years ago, as a student in a foreign university, I remember attacking, with the complacency of youth, a German history of the English drama, in six volumes. I lost courage long before the author reached the age of Elizabeth, but I still recall the subject of the opening chapter: it was devoted to the physical geography of Great Britain. Writing, as the good German professor did, in the ... Read more

  • The American Spirit in Literature: A Chronicle of Great Interpreters

    by Bliss Perry ...
    The United States of America has been from the beginning in a perpetual change. The physical and mental restlessness of the American and the temporary nature of many of his arrangements are largely due to the experimental character of the exploration and development of this continent.

  • The American Spirit in Literature

    A chronicle of great interpreters

    by Bliss Perry ...
    An extraordinary piece of American history."We are but strangers in an inn, but passengers in a ship," said Roger Williams. This sense of the transiency of human effort, the perishable nature of human institutions, was quick in the consciousness of the gentleman adventurers and sober Puritan citizens who emigrated from England to the New World. It had been a familiar note in the poetry of that ... Read more

  • A Study of Poetry

    by Bliss Perry ...

My confidence that the genetic method is the natural way of approaching the subject has been shared by many lovers of poetry. I hope, however, that I have not allowed my insistence upon the threefold process of "impression, transforming ... Read more

  • A Study of Poetry

    by Bliss Perry ...
    My confidence that the genetic method is the natural way of approaching the subject has been shared by many lovers of poetry. I hope, however, that I have not allowed my insistence upon the threefold process of “impression, transforming imagination, and expression” to harden into a set formula. Formulas have a certain dangerous usefulness for critics and teachers, but they are a very small part of ... Read more
