Book Description
Excerpt from Selections From Longfellow, Whittier, Lowell, Holmes, Emerson, Bryant: With Portraits and Biographical Sketches The first piece set down in the list of Longfellow's writings is The Battle of Lovell's Pond in 1820. The poet was born at Portland, Maine, February 27, 1807, so that he was only thirteen years old at the time. He was a school-boy then, and in 1821 entered Bowdoin College. During the four years of his college life and the few months which intervened before he made his first journey to Europe, three prose papers and twenty-four poems found their way into print, and when he came, later on, to collect his poems, he was willing to retain seven of these earlier pieces. He went to Europe in 1826, to qualify himself for a professorship in Bowdoin College, and remained abroad three years. Upon his return he entered upon his college duties, and in connection with them occupied himself with preparing French, Spanish, and Italian text-books. He also turned the results of his study in modern languages and literature into critical and scholarly articles for The North American Review, but rendered his experience of travel into more distinctly literary form in his book of European life, Outre-Mer. In 1831 he was married, and in 1834 was invited to take the chair of Modern Languages in Harvard University. This sent him to Europe again, with special reference to the study of the northern literatures. His wife accompanied him, but died a few months after they left America. He spent a year only abroad this time, and when he returned, made his home in the historic house in Cambridge which had been Washington's headquarters. Very soon after his Cambridge life began, he resumed the writing of poetry, which, except in the form of translations, chiefly in connection with his review articles, he had abandoned since leaving America for the first time.
