A small general guide

The title of this book is a lot larger than its contents. It actually consists of small essays on and examples of various qualities of Literature, such as Imagery, Diction, Rhyme, Rhythm, Poetic Thought, Feeling, Diction. It also contains an appendix of passages for comparison and appreciation, which appear in pairs. It is possible to learn from each of the chapters of the work, but do not expect definitive or comprehensive coverage of the subjects in question.
