About this book
Isaac Disraeli planned a history of English literature that traced the rise of public opinion alongside the lives of authors, and this book gathers the parts he finished. The sketches begin with the Druids, the Britons and the Anglo-Saxons and go on to Cædmon and Milton, Beowulf and the Anglo-Normans. He prepared the work after losing his sight, which left him unable to read a line of it himself. This new edition was edited by his son, the Earl of Beaconsfield, and its title ties it to Disraeli's earlier Curiosities of Literature and Miscellanies of Literature.
