Abstract
  • "The literature that has been produced in the South springs from the depth and fullness of the southern nature; it is all picturesque, in one manner or an other. Creative art is everywhere evident, especially in the works of Edgar Allan Poe. The works of George Washington Cable receive vitality through their artistic finish and rich southern atmosphere. Sidney Lanier, the author of our best and most melodious southern poetry has greatly added to American literature and may be ranked with Swinburne. He has revealed new possibilities for the English language, thereby greatly enriching it. Again, that talent which sometimes pleases us most, is transcribing the old, well known things into fascinating and beautiful language. Joel Chandler Harris has accomplished thin in his 'Uncle Remus,' a sympathetic interpretation of negro folklore, told with plenty of negro wit and dialect. These four authors seem to me the most representative and the most important of those in the South."--p.3
