About This Item
London: Printed for William Hone, 1819. With his collected Political Essays Hazlitt ended his activities as controversial journalist. Hazlitt's Preface is characteristically fierce, and the whole book has a strong political flavour" (Keynes). "Though a miscellany of previously published occasional journalism, it nevertheless offers a fine introduction to the sharpness of Hazlitt's prose and the spice of his convictions - his faith in Napoleon, his hatred for Pitt, his uneasy admiration of Burke, his dismay at the apostasy of Coleridge and Southey" (ODNB).
