[EAN: 9781331420453], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books, United States], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from William Cullen Bryant My principal authority for the facts of Bryant s life as I have here presented them is the official biography by his son-in-law, the late Parke Godwin. On the exhaustive material brought together in the two massive volumes of that work I have drawn freely for my own picture of the poet and editor as he appears to us now that nearly a generation has elapsed since his death. Other authorities have also been consulted, such as Mr. John Bigelow s William Cullen Bryant in the American Men of Letters series, and General James Grant Wilson s Bryant and His Friends. Mr. Henry C. Sturges s elaborate Chronology, based upon Mr. Godwin s Life, in the recent Eoslyn edition of Bryant s poetical works, has been useful for purposes of reference, as have also his extended Bibliographies in the same volume. On the critical side I have found valuable suggestions in many places, particularly in Mr. E. C. Stedman s Poets of America, Mr. Churton Collins s The Poetry and Poets of America, containing a notable tribute to Bryant by a distinguished English critic, and Mr. G. E. Woodberry s America in Literature. All three of these works assign Bryant a high place in American literature. On the whole, however, it seems to me that criticism, and especially American criticism, has done him scant justice.
