The Course of English Classicism : From the Tudor to the Victorian Age

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Course of English Classicism: From the Tudor to the Victorian Age' is a comprehensive critical survey that traces the evolution and endurance of classical influence within English literature and thought. Spanning several centuries, Sherard Vines examines the complex trajectory of the classical tradition, from its initial integration during the Tudor Renaissance to its shifting manifestations through the Augustan Age and into the late Victorian era. Vines explores how Greek and Roman ideals were not merely imitated but were dynamically adapted to suit the changing cultural and social landscapes of Britain. The work investigates the formal structures, stylistic developments, and philosophical undercurrents that defined classicism across different generations. By analyzing the contributions of major literary figures and the broader aesthetic movements they represent, the book provides deep insight into the foundational role of antiquity in shaping the English creative identity. 'The Course of English Classicism' remains an essential study for those seeking to understand the intellectual heritage and stylistic rigor that characterized British letters for centuries. It offers a scholarly yet accessible look at the persistent dialogue between the modern English writer and the ancient world.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
