Halleck emphasizes the importance of literature as a reflection of cultural ideals and the growth of society across generations. In the introductory chapters, he discusses the significance of knowing the geographical and historical context of literary works, suggesting that understanding the authors’ environments—both physically and intellectually—enhances the appreciation of their contributions to literature.
