Three Narrative Poems: The Rime of the Ancient Mariner; Sohrab and Rustum; Enoch Arden (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from Three Narrative Poems: The Rime of the Ancient Mariner; Sohrab and Rustum; Enoch Arden

The purpose of this volume of the Academy Series is to offer in a single book the three narrative poems set by the New York Regents for a part of second-year English. It is believed that the nature of the poems readily admits such grouping, and that the combination will be a con venience for teachers and a saving for students. Schools which offer only the reading required for entrance to col lege, and would therefore need only The Ancient fllarz'ner, may find the present volume of advantage, in that its use will permit the student to make comparison with other nar rative compositions. The text has been carefully chosen in each instance.

The editor gratefully acknowledges his obligations to other workers in the same field. The plan of the book is his own, but in the execution of that plan many sources have been freely drawn upon. The aim in the preparation of the notes has been to suggest to the student such other reading as will help him to interpret for himself the poem in hand. The map to make clear the geography of Sohmb and Rustum was made by Miss Alice Derfla Howes, to whom the editor would also acknowledge his gratitude for valuable suggestions embodied in the notes.
