Sinopsis

Excerpt from Days of History

View of our national life by means of scenes, which, based upon historical fact, are to a certain extent dramatic and representative of the feelings of the characters round which they are centred. No attempt has been made to copy slavishly the language of any period or to produce Wardour Street English. At the same time we have somewhat modified modern speech in order to impart an old-world flavour to scenes of long ago. It is quite possible that slight historical inac curacies have crept in here and there; but we believe these are inevitable in dealing imaginatively with details of which little is known. We should be obliged, however, if anyone who notices any such inaccuracy would be good enough to point it out to.

Excerpt from Days of History

These glimpses into History are, so far as we know, a novel attempt to offer a fairly continuous view of our national life by means of scenes, which, based upon historical fact, are to a certain extent dramatic and representative of the feelings of the characters round which they are centred. No attempt has been made to copy slavishly the language of any period or to produce Wardour Street English. At the same time we have somewhat modified modern speech in order to impart an old-world flavour to scenes of long ago. It is quite possible that slight historical inaccuracies have crept in here and there; but we believe these are inevitable in dealing imaginatively with details of which little is known. We should be obliged, however, if anyone who notices any such inaccuracy would be good enough to point it out to us.
