The Eulogies of Howard is a book written by William Hayley that is a collection of eulogies dedicated to the memory of his friend, the poet and playwright, James Howard. The book contains several elegies and tributes written by Hayley and other prominent writers of the time, including Samuel Johnson and William Cowper. The eulogies are written in a variety of styles, including poetry and prose, and offer a glimpse into the life and work of James Howard, as well as the literary and cultural scene of the late 18th century. The book is a poignant tribute to a talented writer and a valuable historical document of the literary world of the time.I could not be checked by any fear of overstepping the modesty of Truth in the celebration of Virtue, so solid and so extensive, that the malevolence of Envy could not diminish its weight, the fondness of Enthusiasm could not amplify its effects. But I must not forget that there are professional limits to my discourse. It is incumbent on me to confine myself to a single object, and to dwell only on those public services, that peculiarly endear the name of Howard to the liberal and enlightened community in which I have the honour to preside.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
