Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leigh Hunt as Poet and Essayist: Being the Choicest Passages From His Works Leigh Hunt is so delightful a writer, both in prose and verse, and his good things have, until now, lain scattered broadcast through so many volumes, numbering in all at a moderate computation at least eighty, most of which are long since entirely out of print, that it appears almost incredible that more than a hundred years should have elapsed since his birth without his choicest productions as Poet and Essayist having been, hitherto, brought together in a single volume. It is this thought which has naturally led at last to the issuing from the press of the present collection. It endows its possessor, at once, according to Marlowe´s familiar phrase, with - Infinite riches in a little room. It embraces within it, to begin with, many well-known masterpieces. As a companion it can always be relied upon to charm and to exhilarate. And its influence, like that of its author throughout his literary career, will invariably be found by the reader, as he turns these leaves, about the brightest and pleasantest well imaginable. Within this narrow compass have been brought together the sprightliest runnings from his pen, selected from all his varied and voluminous periodicals, - from the News, the Examiner, the Reflector, the Round Table, the Indicator, the Liberal, the Companion, the Chat of the Week, the Tatler, Leigh Hunt´s London Journal, Leigh Hunt´s Journal, and the Monthly Repository.
