Opis

Excerpt from English and Other Critical Essays Man's sociality of nature evinces itself in spite of all that can be said, with abundant evidence by this one fact, were there no other: the unspeakable delight he takes in Biography. It is written, 'The proper study of mankind is man,' to which study, let us candidly admit, he, by true or by false methods, applies himself, nothing loath. 'Man is 'perennially interesting to man; nay, if we look strictly to 'it, there is nothing else interesting,' How inexpressibly comfortable to know our fellow-creature; to see into him, understand his goings-forth, decipher the whole heart of his mystery: nay, not only to see into him, but even to see out of him, to view the world altogether as he views it; so that we can theoretically construe him, and could almost practically personate him; and do now thoroughly discern both what manner of man he is, and what manner of thing he has got to work on and live on! A scientific interest and a poetic one alike inspire us in this matter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
