Biography
Born in
Literary criticism
His first book, "A Primer of French Literature" (1880), and his "Short History of French Literature" (1882), were followed by a series of editions of French classics and of books and articles on the history of
He edited the series of "Periods of European Literature," contributing the volumes on "The Flourishing of Romance and the Rise of Allegory" (1897), and "The Earlier Renaissance" (1901).
He subsequently produced some of his most important works, "A History of Criticism" (3 vols., 1900-1904), with the companion volume "Loci Critici, Passages Illustrative of Critical Theory and Practice" (Boston, U.S.A., and London, 1903), and "A History of English Prosody from the 12th Century to the Present Day" (i., 1906; ii., 1908; iii., 1910); also "The Later Nineteenth Century" (1909).
Wine
Although Saintsbury was best known as a scholar during his lifetime, he is perhaps best remembered today for his "Notes on a Cellar-Book" (1920), one of the great testimonials to drink and drinking in wine literature. When he was close to death, André Simon arranged a dinner in his honour. Although Saintsbury did not attend, this was the start of the Saintsbury Club, men of letters and members of the wine trade who continue to have dinners to this day.
