We may say, without contradiction, that the marvellous story of our literature in its vital connection with the origin and growth of the English people has never been treated with a greater union of conscientious research, minute scholarship, pleasantness of humor, picturesqueness of style, and sympathetic intimacy.--_London Chronicle._

The most important and delightful contribution to the popular study of English literature since Taine’s volumes were published, is to be made by M. J. J. Jusserand in his “Literary History of the English People.” ... Only the most meagre sketch of the pleasure in store for the readers of M. Jusserand’s volume can be given here. No one interested in the beginnings of English literature can fail to be pleased with this delightful study. A thoroughly stimulating book ... which will arouse fresh interest in the early periods of our literature.--_Literary World._

M. Jusserand is an investigator of keen insight and indefatigable energy. He has also the quality which gives to him, from his Latin parentage, synthesis and literary tact.... He paints a picture.... It is unquestionably true that for this generation, M. Jusserand has said the last word on this subject.... For the period of Chaucer, he has summarized what is known with admirable skill.... His work must be accepted as the authority on the Middle Ages as they were lived in England.--_N. Y. Commercial Advertiser._

The book bears witness on every page to having been written by one whose mind was overflowing with information, and whose heart was in abounding sympathy with his work. Mr. Jusserand possesses pre-eminently the modern spirit of inquiry, which has for its object the attainment of truth and a comprehension of the beginnings of things and of the causes that have brought about effects.--_N. Y. Times._

After so many excellent works, of which English literature is the subject, have been issued in England and on the Continent, after even the epic work of Taine, yet M. Jusserand still contrives to be original, fresh, and creative. The history of English literature has been written before, but what he gives us is something new; it is the literary history of the English people, that is to say, he makes us follow the historical evolution of the nation in literature, and what that evolution has created and revealed. He has employed a method which could not be used with success, except by a man with a thorough and correct knowledge of literature and the history of the English people, and of the people themselves, and one who is worthy of serious consideration by all literary historians.--_La Revue de Paris_, July 1, 1894, on the French Edition.

[18] In chapter xv., after cautioning his copyists against rash corrections of apparent faults in the Sacred MSS., he says: _Ubicunque paragrammata in disertis hominibus_ [Hodgkin interprets this term as referring to classical authors] _reperta fuerunt, intrepidus vitiosa recorrigat_. (Wherever mistakes in syntax are found in classical authors, he fearlessly corrects them.) The larger part of chapter xxviii. is devoted to an argument against _respuere sæcularium literarum studia_ (rejecting the study of secular literature).

[291] The _livre Parisis_ was the equivalent of twenty sols or twenty-five francs. The _sol_ equalled twelve deniers or one franc, or twenty cents. The _denier_ was of the value of one and three-fifths cents. In considering these “equivalents,” due allowance must of course be made for the very much larger purchasing power possessed by money in the fourteenth century than in the nineteenth.
