Book Overview

Literature With A Large L And Fellow Travelers is a book written by Jenkins and MacGregor, first published in 1919. The book is a collection of essays and literary criticism that explores the concept of ""Literature with a Large L"" - a term used to describe works of literature that are considered to be of great importance and cultural significance. The authors argue that Literature with a Large L is not limited to the canon of classic works but can also include contemporary works that have the potential to become classics. They also discuss the role of the writer and the reader in the creation and interpretation of literature.In addition to their discussion of Literature with a Large L, the authors also introduce the concept of ""fellow travelers"" - writers who may not be considered part of the literary canon but who share similar themes and styles with established writers. The book examines the works of several fellow travelers, including George Bernard Shaw, H.G. Wells, and G.K. Chesterton.Overall, Literature With A Large L And Fellow Travelers is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature and importance of literature, and a celebration of the diversity and richness of the literary world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
