Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Uncollected Writings of Thomas De Quincey, Vol. 1 of 2: With a Preface and Annotations ´The last fruit off an old tree!´ This, in the words of Walter Savage Landor, is what I have now the honour to set before the public in these hitherto ´Uncollected Writings of Thomas De Quincey.´ It was my privilege to be associated intimately with the Author some thirty to forty years ago - from the beginning of 1850 until his death in 1859. Throughout the whole period during which he was engaged in preparing for the Press his Selections Grave and Gay, I assisted in the task. Of the singularly pleasant literary intercourse of that memorable time I have given some reminiscences in Harper´s Magazine for this month. I may yet combine in a Volume with these some amusing, scholarly letters in my possession, and a Selection of Papers from the original sources, which I feel warranted, by the Author´s own estimate, in calling De Quincey´s Choice Works.
