Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Essay on the Life and Genius of Thomas Fuller: With Selections From His Writings It is a little surprising that Fuller has not furnished a title to one of the many volumes of Ana which have instructed and amused the world. If it be said that he left behind him no collection resembling those to which the name of Ana was at first applied, this is true; but it has been not unfrequently extended to compilations from the "Opera Omnia" of authors of eminent merit, when their works, like those of Fuller, abound in anecdote, amusing gossip, and piquant reflection, or are distinguished by vigour, vivacity, and epigrammatic point. The selections containing the "essential extract" of voluminous authors - their most racy thoughts and most striking images - differ but little from those miscellanies, consisting of anecdotes and fragments of conversation, to which the term Ana was originally applied.
