Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wise Words and Quaint Counsels of Thomas Fuller: Selected and Arranged, With a Short Sketch of the Author´s Life The writings of Thomas Fuller had become almost forgotten when, at the beginning of the present century, Coleridge and Charles Lamb set themselves to claim for them a foremost place in English literature. Since then Fuller has been ´a name to swear by´ among all cultured classes; but the very large surface over which Fuller´s works extend makes it impossible for any but the favoured few to possess them or to acquire anything like a familiar acquaintance with them as a whole. The present volume is intended therefore as a convenient treasure-house for such as may wish to form some estimate of Fuller´s genius and who have not the time to give to a general survey of his voluminous and very unequal writings. Though the Church History and the Worthies must live as long as the English language lives, only oblivion can be expected for much else that Fuller published in his lifetime. There are books that must die and be forgotten though they be written by the greatest and most gifted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
