Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Account of the Life and Writings of Hugh Blair From departed worth there is seldom any disposition to detract. Even the merit that was once doubtful is recognised as genuine; the outlines of a great character conceal its foibles; and the meanness of jealousy is ashamed to show itself. The talents and virtues, which once commanded the admiration of the world, present a subject of inquiry that is no less useful than agreeable. What we are obliged to revere, we are ever prone to imitate. High as the standard may be by which others have regulated their conduct, the at-tainment of it is seen to be possible; and they who are accustomed to contemplate distinguished endowments in others, often foster such in themselves, without being conscious of doing so. The author of this biographical dissertation knows well the difficulty of the task undertaken by him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
