Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Evenings With a Reviewer, Vol. 1 of 2: Or a Free and Particular Examination of Mr. Macaulay´s Article on Lord Bacon, in a Series of Dialogues Well; how does the cause of Bacon prosper? when is Macaulay to be overthrown? For at present, with us who know nothing of the matter but what he tells us, he has it all his own way. Have you read him attentively? - read him, "not to believe and take for granted, but to weigh and consider"? I have read him as attentively as one does read Macaulay. He does not give one time to pause much. You must drink him off while he sparkles, or you lose half the relish. It would be like sipping champagne. Or soda-water; - flat enough no doubt if you miss the fizz. But there is the mischief. For if you were to read carefully even his own comments on the story as told by himself without seeing reason to mistrust his judgement, I should not think much of your own.
