The Fight and Other Writings
William Hazlitt
- Hazlitt
- is
- one
- of
- the
- greatest
- masters
- of
- English
- prose
- style
- and
- this
- new
- selection
- demonstrates
- the
- variety
- and
- richness
- of
- his
- writing.
- The
- volume
- includes
- classic
- pieces
- of
- drama
- and
- literature
- criticism,
- such
- as
- his
- essays
- on
- Shakespeare

- less
- well-known
- material
- from
- his
- social
- and
- political
- journalism.
- This
- collection
- encourages
- the
- reader
- to
- reconsider
- the
- nature
- of
- critical
- writing,
- which
- Hazlitt
- transforms
- into
- an
- art form.
