Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Uncollected Writings of Thomas De Quincey, Vol. 2 of 2: With a Preface and Annotations This Paper, originally written for me in 1857, and published in Titan for July of that year, has not appeared in any collective edition of the author´s works, British or American. It was his closing contribution to a series of three articles concerning Chinese affairs, prepared when our troubles with that Empire seemed to render war imminent. The first two were given in Titan for February and April, 1857, and then issued with additions in the form of a pamphlet which is now very scarce. It consisted of 152 pages thus arranged: - (1) Preliminary Note, i - iv; (2) Preface, pp. 3 - 68; (3) China (the two Titan papers), pp. 69 - 149; (4) Postscript, pp. 149 - 152. In the posthumous supplementary volume (XVI.) of the collected works the third section was reprinted, but all the other matter was discarded - with a rather imperfect appreciation of the labour which the author had bestowed upon it, and his own estimate of the value of what he had condensed in this Series - as frequently expressed to me during its progress.
