Excerpt from The Great English Novelists, Vol. 1: With Introductory Essays and Notes From the modern standpoint a detail has no value unless it contributes something to the total denouement of the plot. A novelist proves himself an artist by his ability to discriminate between those incidents and statements which hasten and strengthen, or delay and weaken the crisis. Yet this over-elaboration of detail, to the end that fiction may wear the appearance of truth, is to this day the be setting sin of the realist. Christie Murray has pointed out the inclination to errors of this sort in the novels of George Moore. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Great English Novelists, Vol. 2: With Introductory Essays and Notes The methods adopted by the great writers who I preceded Scott were tentative and exmrimcntal Scott gave the modern novel its organic form. He endowed it with epic vigor, made it vivid with narrative lucidity, and gave it the form Of a history full Of keen characterization and dramatic impulse. In his hands it became an instru ment Of extraordinary exibility, capable Of all moods. It superseded the drama as a mirror of life, and challenged poetry itself as an interpretation of the emotions. He determined its form, and all subsequent writers are his debtors, however far they may be removed from Scott in his peculiar gift Of romanticism.
