About this book
Dante to Tasso, Du Bellay to Boileau, Ascham to Milton: Joel Elias Spingarn divides this study into Italian, French and English criticism, with the sixteenth century as its centre. Written for Columbia University's literature series in 1899, it asks how the classic spirit arose in modern letters and where the rules of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century neo-classical writing came from. Spingarn concentrates on principles, theories and rules rather than on single books or authors.
