First Edition. In the end of the eighteenth century and the beginning of the nineteenth - from, approximately, the death of Samuel Johnson in 1784 to that of Walter Scott in 1832 - Edinburgh, rather than London, was the intellectual centre of the kingdom. It would, of course, be easy to show that London has never lacked illustrious men of letters among her citizens, and, in this very period, the names of Sheridan, Bentham, Blake, Lamb, and Keats at once occur to memory as evidence against our thesis. It must also be admitted that Edinburgh shares some of her great names with London, and that many of the writers of the time are associated with neither capital. A little rubbing at top and bottom of spine and corner tips. Previous owner's name embossed on title page. A faint trace of foxing to prelims. Overall a tight, clean very nice copy. 8vo. Blue cloth stamped in gold. 314 pp. Top edge gilt.…
