Development of the English Novel_. RUSKIN The great edition of Ruskin is the Library edition by E.T. Cook and A. Wedderburn, begun in 1903. It is splendidly illustrated and is a superb specimen of book-making. English and American editors of Ruskin are numerous. The standard life of Ruskin is by W.G. Collingwood, his secretary and ardent disciple. One of his pupils, E.T. Cook, published _Studies in Ruskin_, which throws much light on his methods of teaching art. J.A. Hobson in _John Ruskin, Social Reformer_ discusses his economic and social teaching. Dr. Charles Waldstein of Cambridge in _The Work of John Ruskin_ develops his art theories. Good critical studies may also be found in W.M. Rossetti's _Ruskin_ and Frederic Harrison's _Tennyson, Ruskin, Mill and Other Literary Estimates_; Justin McCarthy, _Modern Leaders_; Mary R. Mitford, _Recollections of a Literary Life_ and R.H. Hutton, _Contemporary Thought and Thinkers_. Among magazine articles may be noted W.J. Stillman in the CENTURY, volume 13; Charles Waldstein in HARPER'S, volume 18; Justin McCarthy in the GALAXY, volume 13, and Leslie Stephen in FRAZER'S, volumes 9 and 49. TENNYSON The best edition of Tennyson is the Eversley in six volumes, published by the Macmillans and edited by his son Hallam, which contains a mass of notes left by the poet and many explanations of peculiar words and metaphors which the father gave to the son in discussing his work. This edition also gives the changes made by the poet in his constant revision of his works, some of which were not improvements. A mass of critical commentary and reminiscence has been published on Tennyson and his poetical work. Among the best of these volumes are _Tennyson, Ruskin and Mill_, by Frederic Harrison; _Tennyson and His Friends_, by Mrs. Richmond Ritchie; _The Homes and Haunts of Tennyson_, by Napier; _Tennyson, His Art and Relation to Modern Life_, by Stopford A. Brooke; _The Poetry of Tennyson_, by Henry Van Dyke; the chapter on Tennyson in Stedman's _Victorian Poets_; a commentary on Tennyson's _In Memoriam_ by Prof. A.C. Bradley; _Alfred Tennyson_, by Andrew Lang; _Views and Reviews_, by W.E. Henley; _Yesterdays With Authors_, by J.T. Fields; _The Victorian Age_, by Mrs. Oliphant. Dr. Henry Van Dyke contributed
