Essays Of William Hazlitt

Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization, and helped make us who we are.

This early work by William Hazlitt is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. It contains a collection of essays on various subjects by one of the unsung masters of the English language. This is a fascinating work and thoroughly recommended for anyone interested in English literature. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
