Charles (William Charles Mark) Kent (1823-1902) was an English poet, biographer, and journalist, born in London. After completing his education at Prior Park and Oscott, he became editor of the Sun (1845-70), studied law at the same time and was called to the bar in 1859, but thereafter devoted himself to literature. He edited Weekly Register, a Roman Catholic paper (1874-81). A personal friend of Charles Dickens, he contributed to Household Words and All the Year Round under Dickens's editorship and to other periodicals. Several volumes of poems, published previously in the forties, fifties, and sixties, provided the materials for his collected Poems (1870). In later years he gave himself largely to editorial work-chiefly complete editions of the greater English writers, memoirs, and critiques, and notably Burns (1874), Lamb (1875 and 1893), Moore (1879), Father Prout (1881), and Lord Lytton (1875, 1883, and 1898). He also wrote Leigh Hunt as an Essayist (1888), The Wit and Wisdom of Lord Lytton (1883) and The Humour and Pathos of Charles Dickens (1884).

A History Of The Jewish People; During The Babylonian, Persian, And Greek Periods

Excerpt from The Kings and Prophets of Israel and Judah: From the Division of the Kingdom to the Babylonian ExileThe three centuries and a half, which began with the division of the Hebrew empire and extended to the Babylonian exile, were in many ways the most important period in Israel's history. It was during this epoch that the Israelites ceased to be a provincial people, limited in their out look to the narrow horizon of Palestine. Events over which they had little control brought them into close contact with the great world powers of the day, thereby vastly broadening their faith, as well as their vision of history and of their relation to the human race. It was a period marked by supreme political, social and religious crises, which funda mentally transformed Israel's religion and institutions. These crises called forth the great ethical prophets of the eighth and seventh centuries B.o.; and their work and teachings made Israel's experience during these trying years one of the most significant chapters in human history.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
