Table-Talk by William Hazlitt (best pdf reader for ebooks txt) π
Description
William Hazlitt was a well-regarded critic and essayist in his day, and Table-Talk, a collection of some of his more popular short essays, is perhaps his best-remembered work.
The essays themselves range in subject from philosophy, to art, to literature, culture, society, and politics, with titles like βOn the Pleasures of Paintingβ and βOn Corporate Bodies.β Hazlittβs intimate style and deep familiarity with many different aspects of art culture (not only was he a literary success, but he studied under Joshua Reynolds to be a portrait painter) make his essays fascinating multi-disciplinary reads.
Table-Talk was originally published in two separate volumes, and, largely due to Hazlittβs political activism, was received poorly by his contemporaries. Today itβs considered one of his masterpieces.
