Summary: "Library of the World's Best Literature, Ancient and Modern — Volume 07" by Warner et al. is a collection of significant literary works and essays compiled in the late 19th century. This volume features a variety of authors and genres, offering readers a broad survey of essential literary contributions, including poetry, prose, and critical essays. The compilation presents works from notable figures like John Bunyan and Robert Burns, alongside pieces from lesser-known authors, thereby showcasing the richness of both ancient and modern literature. At the start of the volume, readers are introduced to the life and literary contributions of Henry Cuyler Bunner, described as a poet with a profound appreciation for everyday life and the human experience. His works, characterized by a blend of realism and humor, capture the essence of 19th-century America. The opening also includes a summary of Bunner's poem "Triolet," which reflects the simple beauty of a flower pot observed from a tenement. Following this, the narrative introduces a charming tale about a seamstress living in a tenement who engages in a whimsical, albeit indirect, correspondence with a neighbor through a beer mug. This story sets the tone for the volume, illustrating how ordinary moments can be transformed into literary gems, revealing the humanity that unites us all.
