Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ... WILLIAM HAZLITT His descent. Hazlitt's father, a minister in the Unitarian Church, was the son of an Antrim dissenter, who had removed to Tipperary; Hazlitt's mother was the daughter of a Cambridgeshire yeoman; so that there is small room for wonder if Hazlitt were all his life distinguished by a fine pugnaciousness of mind, a fiery courage, an excellent doggedness of temper, and (not to crack the wind of the poor metaphor) a brilliancy in the use of his hands unequalled in his time, and since his time, by any writing Englishman. Of course, he was very much else; or this monument1 to his genius would scarce be building, this draft to his credit would have been drawn for To-Morrow on To-Day. But, while he His fighting lived, his fighting talent was the sole thing in his talent' various and splendid gift that was evident to the powers that were; and, inasmuch as he loved nothing so dearly as asserting himself to the disadvantage of certain superstitions which the said powers esteemed the very stuff of life, they did their utmost to dissemble his uncommon merits, and to present him to the world at large as a person whose 1 The monument is the edition published by Mr. Dent (1902-4), to which this Essay served as an introduction. morals were deplorable, whose nose was pimpled, whose mind was lewd, whose character would no more bear inspection than his English, whose heart and soul and taste were irremediable, and who, as he persisted in regarding 'the Corsican fiend' as a culmination of human genius and character, must for that reason especially--(but there were many others)--be execrated as a public enemy, and stuck in the pillory whenever, in the black malice of his corrupt and poisonous heart, he sought, by feigning an affection for...

The text of the book consists of some 150 letters (out of a corpus of 2,500) written by the late nineteenth-century poet, critic, editor and journalist W.E. Henley, to various figures of the period, e.g. R.L. Stevenson, H. G. Wells, J.M. Barrie, William Archer, Rodin, Wilde, Kipling, Arthur Morrison, Alice Meynell, and Edmund Gosse. Letters are also included to other figures within Henley’s immediate circle, his wife Anna, his financial backer Fitzroy Bell, Charles Baxter the arbitrator in the quarrel between Henley and Stevenson, and his Edinburgh art collector friend Hamilton Bruce. Each letter is fully annotated. An introduction places Henley within the period and provides a biographical account of his life and literary work which is reflected in his letters. Of particular importance is the role of Henley as editor of London, the Magazine of Art, the Scots Observer and later the National Observer and the New Review.

This early work by William Ernest Henley was originally published in 1903 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'In Hospital' is a collection of poetry he wrote during a three year stay at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh and is notable as one of the earliest examples of free verse written in England. William Ernest Henley was born on 23rd August 1849, in Gloucester, England. In 1867, Henley passed the Oxford Local Schools Examination and set off to London to establish himself as a journalist. Unfortunately, his career was frequently interrupted by long stays in hospital due to a diseased right foot which he refused to have amputated. Henley's best-remembered work is his poem "Invictus", written in 1888. It is a passionate and defiant poem, reportedly written as a demonstration of resilience following the amputation of his leg.

Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ... A SONG OF SPEED In the Eye of the Lord, By the Will of the Lord, Out of the infinite Bounty dissembled, Since Time began, In the Hand of the Lord, Speed! Speed as a chattel: Speed in your daily Account and economy; One with your wines, And your books, and your bath-- Speed! Speed as a rapture: An integral element In the new scheme of Life Which the good Lord, the Master, Wills well you should frame In the light of His laugh And His great, His ungrudging, His reasoned benevolence-- Speed! Speed, and the range of God's skies, Distances, changes, surprises; Speed, and the hug of God's winds And the play of God's airs, Beautiful, whimsical, wonderful; Clean, fierce and clean, With a thrust in the throat And a rush at the nostrils; Keen, with a far-away- Taste of inhuman Unviolable Vasts, Where the Stars of the Morning Go singing together For joy in the dazzling, Naked, unvisited Emperies of Space! And the heart in your breast Sings, as the World Slips past like a dream Of Speed-- Speed on the Knees of the Lord. Speed-- Speed, and a world of new havings Red-rushing splendours Of Dawn; the disturbing, Long-drawn, tumultuous Passions of Sunset; And, these twain between, The desperate, great anarchies, The matchless serenitudes, The magical, ravishing, Changing, transforming Trances of Daylight. Speed, and the lap Of the Land that you know For the first time (it seems), As you push through the maze Of her beauties and privacies, Terrors, astonishments: Heath, common, pinewood, Downland and river-scape, Cherry-orchards, water-meads, Forests and stubbles, Oak-temples, daisy-spreads, Vistas of harebell, Hills of the ruggedest, Vales of the comeliest; Barrows and cromlechs, Ancestral ossuaries, Whence (you may fancy) The troubled gray ghosts Of your...
