This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literary Essays Contributed to the Edinburgh Review But he writes with as much ease and freedom as if Latin were his mother tongue; and, where he is least happy, his failure seems to arise from the carelessness of a native, not from the ignorance of a foreigner. We may apply to him what Denham with great felicity says of Cowley. He wears the garb, but not the clothes of the ancients. Throughout the volume are discernible the traces of a powerful and independent mind, emancipated from the influence Of authority, and devoted to the search of truth. Milton professes to form his system from the Bible alone and his digest Of scriptural texts is certainly among the best that have appeared. But he is not always so happy in his inferences as in his Citations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Critical and Historical Essays, Contributed to the Edinburgh Review, Vol. 5 of 5 It is the same with literature. Thousands who have no spark of the genius of Dryden or Wordsworth, do to Dryden the justice which has never been done by Wordsworth, and to Wordsworth the justice which, we suspect, would never have been done by Dryden. Gray, Johnson, Richardson, Fielding, are all highly esteemed by the great body of intelligent and well-informed men. But Gray could see no merit in Rasselas and Johnson could see no merit in the Bard. Fielding thought Richardson a solemn prig; and Richardson perpetually expressed contempt and disgust for Fieldin 's lowness.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays From the Edinburgh and Quarterly Reviews: With Addresses and Other Pieces Ducted on proper principles, and with a view to the general result, I am very desirous that what I have to say should not lose the force I wish it to carry, by coming before you mixed up with my own imperfections as a speaker - and I should be very sorry that the real interest of those topics on which I mean to beg your attention, Should be frittered away in unmeaning or hyperbolical ex pressions, which, in the excitement of the moment, I might have the bad taste to think very eloquent, but which would really have no other effect than to distract attention from the plain common sense of the matter.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Critical and Historical Essays, Contributed to the Edinburgh Review, Vol. 3 of 5 We return our hearty thanks to Mr. Montagu for this truly valuable work. From the opinions which he expresses as a biographer we often dissent. But about his merit as a collector of the materials out of which opinions are formed, there can be no dispute; and we readily acknowledge that we are in a great measure indebted to his minute and accurate researches for the means of refuting what we cannot but consider as his errors. The labour which has been bestowed on this volume has been a labour of love. The writer is evidently enamoured of the subject. It fills his heart. It constantly overflows from his lips and his pen. Those who are acquainted with the Courts in which Mr. Montagu practises with so much ability and success well know how often he enlivens the discussion of a point of law by citing some weighty aphorism, or some brilliant illustration, from the De Augmentis or the Novum Organum.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays, Selected From Contributions to the Edinburgh Review, Vol. 2 of 2: Theological and Political Same principles would of course justify the Papists in persecuting the Protestants, and Protestants in per scouting the Papists; and every form, either of truth or error, that happens to be established, in persecuting every exercise of private judgment that happens to be at variance with it. It must he confessed that these are comprehensive principles of persecution, but we do not like them the worse for that: they are at all events consistent, however indescribably absurd. The accident of previous possession determines, it seems, the right to suppress, and whether it be truth or error, it is all the same: only, as truth is one, while error is multiform, error will have the advantage of this ruthless consistency in a hundred cases to one.

This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Critical and Historical Essays Contributed to the Edinburgh Review, Vol. 3 of 3 In some respects Mr. Leigh Hunt is excellently qualified for the task which he has now undertaken. His style, in spite of its mannerism, nay, partly by reason of its mannerism, is well suited for light, garrulous, desultory aria, half critical, half bio graphical. We do not always agree with his literary judgments; but we find in him whatis very rare in our time, the power of justly appreciating and heartily enjoying good things of very difi'erent kinds. He can adore Shakspeare and Spenser without denying poetical genius to the author of Alexander' s Feast, or fine observation, rich fancy, and exquisite humour to him who imagined Will Honeycomb and Sir Roger de Coverley. He has paid particular attention to the history of the English drama, from the age of Elizabeth down to our own time, and has every right to be heard with respect on that subject.

Pitt saw that a decision by force of arms could no longer be avoided. He also saw that the war must be chiefly a naval war. He subsidised the King of Prussia it is true, and sent a contingent of British troops to Prince Ferdinand, the better to divert the energies of Moo to the Continent, but it was upon the navy that he lavished his care and the resources of the treasury.
