Excerpt from Representative American Poetry This series of books includes in complete editions those masterpieces of English Literature that are best adapted for the use of schools and colleges. The editors of the several volumes are chosen for their special qualifications in connection with the texts issued under their individual supervision, but familiarity with the practical needs of the classroom, no less than sound scholarship, characterizes the editing of every book in the series. In connection with each text, the editor has provided a critical and historical introduction, including a sketch of the life of the author and his relation to the thought of his time, critical opinions of the work in question chosen from the great body of English criticism, and, where possible, a portrait of the author. Ample explanatory notes of such passages in the text as call for special attention are supplied, but irrelevant annotation and explanations of the obvious are rigidly excluded.

Excerpt from Representative Southern Poets To the scholarly and philosophic mind of Dr. Samuel Johnson we owe the wise saying that "the chief glory of every people arises from its authors." Of course he meant authors whose works represent, and are genuine and direct forces in, the development and conservation of ethical and intellectual virtues in the world; he referred to writers who help civilization in the achievement of whatever is best, truest, and most beautiful that the hand of man can give form to, or the soul can reach and transmute out of the Ideal into the Real. Nothing can be of higher value or worthier of praise and admiration than the power and majesty of thought, vitalized by wisdom from heavenly sources and glowing with the inspiration of genius. Thoughts, finding expression in words arranged in harmonious order, embellished with the graces of language, and permanently embodied in the form of books, are things that do not die. They transmit themselves from age to age, and posterity prizes them as a heritage of inestimable worth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Nature Pictures by American Poets The editor's aim in this compilation has been to select, from the works of representative American poets, certain pictures of nature, either vignettes of specific objects or broad landscape effects. There has been a hope that the book might aid in nature study and might foster aesthetic observation and culture. The selections are all taken from authors of high literary rank, with the desire to promote among the younger students a further acquaintance with con temporaneous poets, and, at the same time, to recall familiarly certain classic American poems of description and narration. Doubtless the selections disclose sins of commission and of omission. The editor deeply regrets the ah sence of poems by Sidney Lanier, since satisfactory arrangements could not be made with his publishers. In the introduction, however, tribute has been paid to the poet's sensitive and melodious nature pictures.

Excerpt from One Hundred Best American Poems This grouping of American poems had its rise in the welcome accorded to a little volume entitled "The Hundred Best English Poems," issued by the same publishers. To select one hundred examples from the best work by our American poets, excluding all living authors, and avoiding an undue proportion of pieces by the few acknowledged to be preeminent, has been a puzzling although a pleasant task. Of course, no two editors would select the same hundred pieces from the sixty-four poets here represented. Any one familiar with our poetical literature will miss here certain favorites, and perhaps would criticize some of the selections. This is inevitable. It is not always the most finished art which expresses feelings and "thoughts that shall live within the general mind."

Excerpt from The Masque of Poets: A Collection of New Poems by Contemporary American Poets But I think that America today reflects very much the same spirit of adventurous seeking that England knew more than three centuries ago, and that this spirit will not find its happiest fulfilment till it becomes less personal in its consciousness of a public, and more disinterested in its practice as an art. That the American poets who have contributed to "The Masque of Poets" are disinterested, is proven by their desire to remain anonymous when these poems were first published. Elizabethan poets sang out of pure joy and good fellowship, and the finest American achievement of the last decade has been born of similar joy and good fellowship. I should like to see American poetry published anonymously in such anthologies as this and left for judgment to the public irrespective of authors' signatures.
