Omschrijving
A spark of imagination, a journey through memory, and a clear-eyed look at the past: The English Mail-Coach And Joan Of Arc revisits a turning point in critique and travel writing. Thomas De Quincey crafts a refined, lucid meditation that sits at the crossroads of early nineteenth century essays, a literary essays collection that blends critical essay prose with vivid travel writing literature. The book traces roads-literal by mail coach and figurative through imagination and memory themes-bringing readers to the edge of eighteenth to nineteenth century essays and the Romantic era's sharpest observations. It speaks to british literary readers and the general reader with equal grace, while offering bright breadcrumbs for academic reading audiences and Hazlitt-De Quincey comparisons that illuminate the period's dialogue of ideas. This restored edition is more than a reprint; it's a cultural treasure, a restoration for today's and future generations. It speaks to casual readers who delight in lucid, enlivened prose and to collectors who prize a complete, well-preserved voice from a pivotal era. The book's value lies in its form and themes-an elegant synthesis of travel, critique, memory, and moral reflection-delivered with modern marketing energy and literary reverence. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this volume invites both curious readers and serious scholars to revisit a landmark voice in eighteenth to nineteenth century essays.
