Narrative and Miscellaneous Papers V2 is a collection of essays and writings by Thomas De Quincey, a prominent English writer and essayist of the 19th century. This volume includes a variety of pieces, ranging from personal narratives to literary criticism and social commentary. Some of the notable works in this collection include The English Mail-Coach, a vivid account of a journey by mail coach, and On Murder Considered as One of the Fine Arts, a satirical essay on the fascination with murder in popular culture. Other essays explore topics such as the nature of dreams, the works of Shakespeare, and the history of the Roman Empire. With his distinctive style and insightful observations, De Quincey offers a fascinating glimpse into the intellectual and cultural landscape of his time.Heavy, indeed, are the arrears still due to philosophic curiosity on the real merits, and on the separate merits, of Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Coleridge as a poet--Coleridge as a philosopher! How extensive are those questions, if those were all! and upon neither question have we yet any investigation--such as, by compass of views, by research, or even by earnestness of sympathy with the subject, can, or ought to satisfy, a philosophic demand. Blind is that man who can persuade himself that the interest in Coleridge, taken as a total object, is becoming an obsolete interest.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.
