Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Select Essays of Thomas De Quincey, Vol. 1: Narrative Imaginative The Essays contained in the present volumes have been selected as specimens of De Quincey at his best in his peculiar vein of narrative and poetical phantasy. Even in that vein there are papers of his the omission of which may disappoint some. All that the Editor can say on this head is that, having a pretty thorough acquaintance with the whole of De Quincey´s writings, he has chosen very deliberately, and that he believes his choice to be justified by the already ascertained degrees of popularity of the several Essays chosen, relatively to others of De Quincey´s of the same general kind. De Quincey´s critical and speculative writings, it will be understood, are not represented in these pages; and the volume specially known as The Confessions Of An English Opium-Eater has been left out of the account.
