âLiterary Taste - How to Form Itâ is a 1909 essay by English writer Arnold Bennett. The essay discusses taste in relation to literature, and also includes an exhaustive list of books that Bennett believed constitute classics with every item individually costed. When originally published, the essay and list became very influential. Contents include: âThe Aimâ, âYour Particular Caseâ, âWhy a Classic is a Classicâ, âWhere to Beginâ, âHow to Read a Classicâ, âThe Question of Styleâ, âWrestling with an Authorâ, âSystem in Headingâ, âVerseâ, âBroad Counselsâ, âAn English Library: Period Iâ, âAn English Library: Period IIâ, etc. Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867â1931) was an English writer. Although he is perhaps best remembered for his popular novels, Bennett also produced work in other areas including the theatre, propaganda, journalism, and film. Other notable works by this author include: âHelen with a High Handâ (1910), âThe Cardâ (1911), and âHilda Lesswaysâ (1911). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay on Arnold Bennett by F. J. Harvey Darton. |
