Book Description
"Writing at a time of great social and intellectual turmoil, William Hazlitt (1778-1830) was uncompromising in his defence of truth, liberty and justice, and in his championship of the inarticulate and exploited he added a potent voice to the tradition of radical protest. A magnificent word juggler, he joined shrewd intellectual judgement with a remarkabe facility to detect the significant trends of his day"--from page [4] of cover.

Book Description
William Hazlitt (1778-1830) was probably the most distinguished of the non-fiction prose writers to emerge from the Romantic period. Uniquely, he brought a knowledge of philosophy, history, drama, politics and the visual arts to his literary criticism. The new edition takes all copy texts from early printed sources, collated with lifetime editions and manuscripts.
