HAWTHORNES - 1910 - INTRODUCTORY NOTE - S0 considerable a biographical and critical literature has grown up around Hawthorne that it may be wondered whether there is room for still another book about him. Biography has to do mainly with the facts of his i life criticism takes for granted complete knowledge i of Hawthornes works on the part of the reader. I Therefore it seemed to the writer that there was a place for a book on Hawthorne, the aim of which should be to show more explicitly than has heretofore been shown the relation between his life experiences and his work, and to illustrate as completely as possible in the space of one volume the general trend of his genius and the culmination of its various phases. In these days, when the mass of current literature is so enormous that the classics of American literature are in danger of being forgotten, the writer hopes the book may fill the pleasant office of recalling to those who knew Hawthorne well in their youth the spell he then cast over them that it may have a stimulus to those who have read him not at all or only in part to go to the fountain head and drink to the full of his fancy and wisdom that to a third class, too busy to . read anything but books about books, it may give many glimpses of the genius who has inspired this work of appreciation. The writer desires to express her thanks to Houghton, Mifflin Co. for their kind permission to make quotations from their definitive edition of Hawthornes works.
