Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The British Critic, Vol. 3: A New Review, for January, February, March, April, May and June, MDCCXCIV To paint ungrateful labour perpetually recommencing, the fable of Sisyphus has often been employed. But if to those parts of our monthly task, wherein we are obliged to censure or condemn, we should be tempted to apply that comparison, or any one equivalent to it, the case is very different; whenever we can allow ourselves to praise; and we should rather seek for images of pleasure frequently renewed, the returns of light, or succession of delicious seasons, to illustrate what we feel in such exertions. If to the monthly circuit of our business these representations are occasionally applicable, much more have we reason to exult, whenever we return to our periodical employment of recording the literary triumphs of our country. These, even after our first intervals, of four months each, appeared considerable; and may he expected now more fully to gratify both our readers and ourselves, when we have the scope of half a year through which to view their progress. It is a pleasure also of no trifling magnitude, to be conscious that when we consecrate in our writings the same of our contemporaries, we are enabled by their circulation to extend it very considerably; and that while we distribute praise, we are allowed in some degree to share it.
