  • New Canterbury Tales

    Maurice Hewlett

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Dec. 1, 2017)
    Excerpt from New Canterbury TalesMedway chose that they must. So doing, tend ing from old English burgh to old Roman, they followed a road incredibly older than that from London; for long before their day or Saint Thomas's, English feet, Latin feet, British and (if the tale be true) Trojan feet had trudged ir, bringing mine up from the West to be smithied in the forests of Sussex, then loaded into galleys whose helmsmen knew all the shoals at the Nore. You may well doubt whether there had been any other path for slave or legionary or wild adven turer of the North through those impenetrable wealden woods. My pilgrims, then, took this ancient road, assembling for the purpose at W'in Chester, as nearly as possible upon the Feast of Saints Philip and Jacob, which was in the year of Christ's reign fourteen-hundred and fifty, and in the twenty-eighth year of that of King Henry VI., a pious, unhappy, and nearly imbecile monarch, quite damned in a magnanimous wife.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • The Little Iliad: With a Frontispiece By Philip Burne-Jones

    Maurice Henry Hewlett

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, June 30, 2012)
    Europe but my own, a country where respect for things in being is carried to the other side of idolatry, and where, at the same time, you may see men, and even communities of men, run headlong down steep places to destruction in pursuit of abstract ideas, and win in the ridiculous act the admiration and respect of those to whom the ideas themselves are shocking. AB riton, you admit, reveres established order, fears God, honours the King, loves his father and mother, c. So he does.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
