Summary "A History of Nineteenth Century Literature (1780-1895)" by George Saintsbury is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work provides a comprehensive overview of various literary developments, movements, and key figures in English literature from the late 18th century through the end of the 19th century. The book addresses the rich diversity of literary production during this period, focusing on notable authors and the evolution of genres. At the start of the volume, the author establishes the context of English literary history as it transitions from the 18th to the 19th century. Saintsbury introduces major figures such as William Cowper, George Crabbe, William Blake, and Robert Burns, emphasizing the significance of their contributions and the literary shifts that characterized the late 18th century. He discusses the distinct idiosyncrasies of the period, recognizing both the continuity with earlier writers and the new styles emerging, preparing the reader for an exploration of the literary landscape that would unfold throughout the century.
