Beginning with the Middle Ages, this 1909 literary history considers all variations of the English-language short story: those told for instruction and pleasure, the writings of the heirs of Chaucer—John Lydgate and Thomas Occleve—the writings from the Renaissance, the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and those of such modern masters as Poe, Hawthorne, Stevenson, and Kipling.
