(u. S.) William Joseph Long

248K0

Literature does not deal with our rationality, but with our emotions and imagination. Its charm lies not in its literal meaning but in its ability to awaken something within us. Based on his profound understanding of human history and civilization, Lang, the author of this book, has made an accurate and interesting review of the history of British literature from 1620 to 1900. He has used poetic words to outline the lives and anecdotes of famous British writers, and has a profound understanding of British literature during this period. The works have been insightfully selected and appreciated. Readers can sense the author's concern for the other side of history and his passion for reality from between the lines. Under their guidance, they can understand literature, enjoy literature, and realize the beauty of literature that "time will not make it grow old, and death will not let it be destroyed." The translator has been translating this book since 2007, taking honesty and elegance as his criterion and striving to present the appearance and purpose of the original work authentically.
