Agamemnon (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Agamemnon The masterpieces of our national classics are now happily subjects of study wherever instruction in the humanities is given. There is probably no good school, public or private, in England in which a play of Shakespeare or a book of the Faerie Queene or of Paradise Lost is not included in the curriculum, and generally no doubt with the happiest results. In some cases such studies, degenerating into cram-work, may have failed to effect, but as a rule their record has certainly not been failure. An intelligent appreciation of good literature and a genuine interest in it have been created, liberal curiosity has been awakened, and very many boys and girls annually leave our schools both fitted and anxious to extend their reading and explore for themselves the authors to whom they have been introduced. All this has been the result of the salutary reforms of the last fifteen or twenty years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
