Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Phases of Thought and Criticism
Divina Commedia, and in the mystical elements, partly Christian, partly neo-platonic, entering into the structure of In Memoriam, it is sought to determine the soul giving life and being to each of these works as an organic whole. Each expresses a distinct phase of thought, and is the outcome of a distinct social and intellectual force. Each em bodies a vivifying idea]. The criticism that busies itself solely with the literary form is superficial. For food it gives husks.
