The Might And Mirth Of Literature is a comprehensive treatise on figurative language written by John Walker Vilant Macbeth and published in 1876. This book explores the use of figurative language in literature, including metaphors, similes, personification and other literary devices. Macbeth refers to over six hundred writers and provides illustrations of two hundred and twenty figures of speech to help readers understand the nuances of figurative language. The book aims to provide a deeper understanding of the power of figurative language in literature and how it can be used to convey complex ideas and emotions. This is an essential read for anyone interested in the art of writing and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
