The Literary History of England in the End of the Eighteenth and Beginning of the Nineteenth Century, Vol. 2 of 3 (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Literary History of England in the End of the Eighteenth and Beginning of the Nineteenth Century, Vol. 2 of 3 Amid the greater forms that rose in the new flood of genius and life, in the end of the old century, to give the world assurance of a new epoch coming in, there is no attendant figure more attractive, more delightful, than that of Charles Lamb. No face can frown, no brow be overcast, when Elia - the gentle, the tender, the humorous, and ever-smiling, notwithstanding the deep dew of anguish which was never quite dried in his eyes - makes his appearance upon the scene. No man ever had a sweeter or more light some nature, and few men, even in this world of trouble, have been so heavily weighted. He was the schoolfellow of Coleridge at Christ´s Hospital, and it is enough to warm the heart of fill beholders to every wearer of the blue gown and yellow stockings to remember the two lads, who once strayed about the narrow streets in these habiliments, and ate the poor fare and bore the hardships which, in these days, were inseparable from the lot of a Blue-coat boy.
