Excerpt from Selections From Coleridge's Poems, And, Macaulay's Essay on Warren Hastings: Prescribed for Matriculation Into the University of Toronto, and for Teachers' Examinations, 1886 It must be remembered that, however excellent the Criticism on a poem, etc., may be, nothing can take the place of reading and carefully studying the work itself. Till this is done, all that can be accomplished is a mere memorizing of another's opinion, having no educational value, giving no satisfaction to the student, producing no advance in knowledge of literature. Criticism, taken in connection with an author's work, is of great value, but till the work itself is mastered criticism is useless, often injurious. Ward's British Poets is the very best book a student can have. It is a work containing selections eminently characteristic of the writers, and in quantity great enough to en sure a thorough knowledge of the writer's manner, while excellent critical remarks introduce each selection. Traill's Coleridge may be consulted, and also Stopford Brooke's' Literature Primer.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
