Condition: Sehr gut. VIII, 184 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Overall very good and clean. - Considered the best prose writer of his age by many modern scholars, William Hazlitt (1778-1830) has left us a remarkable body of literary criticism and personal recollections. As a literary critic, Hazlitt is perhaps best known for his writings on William Wordsworth, the great Romantic poet with whom he shared a reverence for one's own past and a Romantic sensibility. Hazlitt's greatest critical achievement, however, was in being one of the first critical historians at a time when little history of English literature had been written. Like Samuel Johnson before him, Hazlitt helped define the nature of literary criticism, and his theories influenced later critics, from Pater and Carlyle to many of our contemporaries. Hazlitt rejected all formal methods of criticism, proclaiming that "there is no method except the personality of the critic." Hazlitt was an active intellectual; he worked as a political journalist and social commentator before turning to literary criticism, and his circle of acquaintances included many of the era's greatest thinkers. A confirmed Jacobin who remained forever loyal to Napoleon I, he often wrote on the relationship between poetry and power and between poetic and social justice. William Hazlitt is one of over 200 volumes in the Modern Critical Views series, edited and introduced by Harold Bloom and published by Chelsea House. Taken together, these volumes represent a comprehensive collection of the best current criticism of the authors of the most widely read poems, novels, stories, essays, and dramas of the Western world. - Harold Bloom, General Editor, is Sterling Professor of the Humanities at Yale University. Widely recognized as one of America's leading literary critics, he is the author of sixteen books and the editor of more than thirty anthologies of both literature and literary criticism. Professor Bloom's works include Shelley's Mythmaking (1959), The Visionary Company (1961), Blake's Apocalypse (1963), Yeats (1970), A Map of Misreading (1975), Kabbalah and Criticism (1975), and Agon: Towards a Theory of Revisionism (1982). The Anxiety of Influence (1973) sets forth Professor Bloom's provocative theory of the literary relationships between the great writers and their predecessors and has augmented his reputation in literary and academic circles. Professor Bloom earned his Ph.D. in Literature from Yale University in 1955 and has been on the Yale faculty ever since. He holds honorary degrees from Boston College and Yeshiva University and has received numerous awards for his work in literary theory and criticism, most recently the Zabel Award of the American Academy of Arts and Letters (1981) and a MacArthur Prize Fellowship (1985). A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, he is currently writing Freud: Transference and Authority and serving as general editor of several other Chelsea House series, including Modern Critical Interpretations and The Critical Cosmos.

So Michel de Montaigne (153392) defines the subject of his Essays. First appearing in 1580, this Renaissance "testing of selves" began as a learned compilation of exempla, but gradually revealed over its six editions the different Montaigneshumanist, skeptic, and honest man. One of his most polemical essays, "Apology for Raymond Sebond," incited the responses of Descartes, Pascal, and Bacon. As the inventor of the modern essay, Montaigne influenced later writers like Robert Burton, Sir Thomas Browne, and Jonathan Swift. A complete critical portrait of the author, this volume presents essays on Montaigne's work by such distinguished critics as Herbert Luthy, Thomas M. Greene, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Louis Marin, and Jean Starobinski. The result from this current assaying of Montaigne is a judicious blend of biographical, historical, and textual criticism.

So Michel de Montaigne (1533-92) defines the subject of his Essays. First appearing in 1580, this Renaissance "testing of selves" began as a learned compilation of exempla, but gradually revealed over its six editions the different Montaigneshumanist, skeptic, and honest man.

As the inventor of the modern essay, Montaigne influenced later writers like Robert Burton, Sir Thomas Browne, and Jonathan Swift. Among the distinguished critics in this volume, Erich Auerbach commences with his classic account of Montaigne's freedom of representation, followed by Robert L.
