    "Father and Son" is an ancient memoir story book written by Edmund Gosse. Father and Son (1907), initially subtitled "A Study of Two Temperaments," is a memoir with the aid of poet and critic Edmund Gosse, first posted anonymously. Gosse had already posted a biography of his father in 1890. Edmund Gosse's early years were spent in a really non secular Plymouth Brethren environment, as defined in Father and Son. Emily Gosse, his mom, died of breast cancer on the age of 50. She turned into a Christian tract writer. Philip Henry Gosse, Edmund's father, changed into an influential and particularly self-taught invertebrate zoologist and marine biology scholar who moved to Devon after his spouse died. The novel focuses on the interaction between the stern religious father, who rejected his scientific colleague Charles Darwin's new evolutionary theories, and his son's innovative rejection of Christian fundamentalism. Gosse utilized pseudonyms for the duration of the book, but a number of the people represented have been diagnosed. Following its preliminary book, Gosse made fifty revisions to Father and Son's textual content, the maximum of which had been minor but a number of which addressed authentic inaccuracies. A bibliographical assessment of the book's variants and impressions (there are sixty- in total) includes information on translations into Arabic, French, German, Italian, Japanese (partial), Spanish, and Swedish.

Gossip In A Library is a must-read for anyone interested in literature, libraries, and the history of books.In this slow fashion, with long Rip Van Winkle slumbers and occasional faint awakenings, the French Academy faltered on with fitful persistence towards the completion of its famous Dictionary. But, as I have said, it was a period of great enthusiasm about all such summaries of knowledge, and Paris was thirsting for grammars, lexicons, inventories of language and the like. The Academy insisted that the world must wait for the approach of their vast and lumbering machine; but meanwhile public curiosity was impatient, and all sorts of brief and imperfect dictionaries were issued to satisfy it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

    Thomas Gray (1716-71) was one of the most influential poets of the eighteenth century, and is probably best remembered today for his Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard. In this biography of Gray, first published in the first 'English Men of Letters' series in 1882, poet and critic Edmund Gosse (1849-1928) delivers a sympathetic account of his subject, offering both a traditional chronological narrative of Gray's life, from his schooldays at Eton, through his travels abroad and his academic career at Cambridge (though he was appointed professor of modern history in 1768, failing health meant that he never delivered any lectures), and an analysis of his poetry. In the book's last chapter, Gosse laments the lack of recognition that Gray had received in England since his death: Dr Johnson is criticised especially for his writings on Gray - 'barren and meagre of fact to the last degree'.

    Edmund Gosse (1849-1928), best known for his memoir Father and Son, was one of the foremost literary critics of his day, even though he had not received a university education. Invited to give the prestigious Clark Lectures at Cambridge, he developed the materials for this book, first published in 1885. Gosse sets out his theory of classical poetry, analysing its rise in the seventeenth century in opposition to freer, more romantic blank-verse forms. The book became the subject of a famously excoriating forty-page review by Oxford-educated critic John Churton Collins. While Collins' estimation of the inaccuracies in Gosse's work was largely correct, the review went far beyond constructive appraisal and caused a literary scandal, though Gosse's reputation was not permanently damaged. This book and the controversy it caused form part of the story of English literature as it established itself as a professional academic discipline.
