Combative and insightful he was close to two generations of romantic poets. His early friendship with Samuel Taylor Coleridge and William Wordsworth as a young man inspired him to a literary career but he became disillusioned with them as apostates from the cause of liberty he associated with the French Revolution. As a mature writer he inspired John Keats and contributed to his thinking about imagination and poetic character. A forceful commentator on contemporary London he was also a committed radical whose What is the People? is an almost visionary statement of a new democratic politics. The Spirit of Controversy collects together Hazlitt's most coruscating and influential essays using versions as they first appeared including those that originally found their way into print in the cut and thrust of the newspapers and magazines of his day.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The Spirit Of Controversy And Other Essays\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Hazlitt William, James (King's College London) Grande\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780199591954\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 448 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 8\/1\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Oxford World's Classics\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Philosophy: Aesthetics","brand":"Hazlitt William","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49593244188977,"sku":"IN-G-9780199591954","price":12.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780199591954.jpg?v=1753224818","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780199591954-the-spirit-of-controversy-and-other-essays","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
