The
present
selection
of
Hazlitt's
critical
essays
has
been
planned
to
serve
two
important
purposes.
In
the
first
place
it
provides
the
materials
for
an
estimate
of
the
character
and
scope
of
Hazlitt's
contributions
to
criticism
and
so
acquaints
students
with
one
of
the
greatest
of
English
critics.
And
in
the
second
place,
what
is
perhaps
more
important,
such
a
selection,
embodying
a
series
of
appreciations
of
the
great
English
writers,
should
prove
helpful
in
the
college
teaching
of
literature.
There
is
no
great
critic
who
by
his
readableness
and
comprehensiveness
is
as
well
qualified
as
Hazlitt
to
aid
in
bringing
home
to
students
the
power
and
the
beauty
of
the
essential
things
in
literature.
There
is,
in
him
a
splendid
stimulating
energy
which
has
not
yet
been
sufficiently
utilized.
The
contents
have
been
selected
and
arranged
to
present
a
chronological
and
almost
continuous
account
of
English
literature
from
its
beginning
in
the
age
of
Elizabeth
down
to
Hazlitt's
own
day,
the
period
of
the
romantic
revival.
To
the
more
strictly
critical
essays
there
have
been
added
a
few
which
reveal
Hazlitt's
intimate
intercourse
with
books
and
also
with
their
writers,
whether
he
knew
them
in
the
flesh
or
only
through
the
printed
page.
Such
vivid
revelations
of
personal
contact
contribute
much
to
further
the
chief
aim
of
this
volume,
which
is
to
introduce
the
reader
to
a
direct
and
spontaneous
view
of
literature...:
