History of English Literature V4 (1889) is a comprehensive book by Hippolyte A. Taine that explores the development of English literature from its earliest origins up to the end of the 19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a particular period or genre of literature. The author provides detailed analyses of the works of major English writers, including Shakespeare, Milton, Pope, and Wordsworth, among others. Taine's approach to literary history is unique in that he emphasizes the influence of social, political, and cultural factors on the development of literature. He argues that literature is a reflection of the society in which it is produced and that the study of literature can provide valuable insights into the history and culture of a particular era. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers. It is an important work of literary history and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the development of English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
