Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Literary Chit-Chat: With Miscellaneous Poems and an Appendix of Prose Papers The papers entitled Literary Chit-Chat were written at irregular intervals for a Calcutta periodical. The reader will hardly need to be told that they were produced with no toil of preparation. The matter, he its quality what it may, was always ready, and, with respect to the style, I had rarely the leisure or the inclination to bestow upon it that care which compositions of more pretension would have demanded. Some of the faults of this work, (if I do not greatly flatter my own judgment) I can easily perceive, - I wish I could as easily remove them. The chief defect perhaps, is a want of dramatic character and keeping. It was not, however, intended that these conversations, though regularly numbered, and appearing under the same general title, should have any necessary connection with each other. I had no fixed plan; so that each subsequent paper was independent of its predecessor. I had often quite forgotten what A or B, or any other gentleman of the Alphabet, had said upon the same subject some weeks or months before. Had I meditated a volume, I should have been more careful and exact. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
