New Course in Summer School.

An additional course--in English Literature of the eighteenth century--will be given in the summer School this year by Mr. Copeland. This course, covering the period from the death of Dryden to the publication of the Lyrical Ballads (1700-1798), deals with those writers who may be regarded as marking the dominance of the classic spirit in English Literature and with those who are commonly spoken of as marking the transition from what is characteristic of the eighteenth century to what is characteristic of the nineteenth. Among the writers discussed are Swift, Addison, Steele, Pope, Johnson, Burke, Goldsmith, Richardson, Fielding, Smollett, Sterne, Walpole, Gray, Cowper and Burns.
