    Selected Marginalia

    de Samuel Taylor Coleridge ...
    Coleridge is such a celebrity that many who have never read "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" have a fair idea who he was, and yet the common impression of him is not flattering. He is typically seen as a youthful genius transformed by drugs and philosophy into a tedious sage. It is time for a change of image. A Book I Value offers a one-volume sampling of Coleridge's encyclopedic marginalia, ... Leer más

    The First Modern Man

    de Duncan Wu ...
    Romanticism is where the modern age begins, and Hazlitt was its most articulate spokesman.

By interpreting it for his contemporaries, he speaks to us of ourselves - of the culture and world we now inhabit. Perhaps the most important development of his time, the creation of a mass ...
