Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leigh Hunt Among writers, there are some for whom the love of art is a quiet domestic emotion, not an awful and glorious passion. Side by side with the lady of their dreams they pass their lives in peaceful happiness, and the charms which hold them press neither on their spirits with anguish nor frame and shape them as the vessel of an unutterable delight. Art for them is not both Heaven and Hell in its own immediate workings, but only Heaven, and a Heaven less wonderful and resplendent for the absence of its sinister counterpart. One in some such case was Leigh Hunt, or to give him his full name, James Henry Leigh Hunt. He was born on the nineteenth of October in the year 1784, at Southgate in Middlesex. His family came from the American continent, wanderers to the West, returned after years to the homeland, with an odd streak of Creole blood mixed somehow with the original English strain. His father was a jovial man of sanguine temperament, a Barbadian lawyer who practised in Philadelphia as well as in the colony.
