Notes of Ben Jonson's Conversations with William Drummond of Hawthornden: January, 1619 is a book that provides a fascinating insight into the conversations that took place between two literary giants of the early 17th century. Ben Jonson, one of England's most celebrated playwrights and poets, met with William Drummond, a Scottish poet and historian, in 1619, and the two men engaged in a series of conversations about literature, politics, and society.The book is a transcription of the notes that Drummond took during these conversations, which cover a wide range of topics, from the nature of poetry and drama to the state of the English monarchy. Jonson's views on these subjects are often controversial and provocative, and his conversations with Drummond provide a unique window into the intellectual and cultural milieu of early 17th-century England.Overall, Notes of Ben Jonson's Conversations with William Drummond of Hawthornden: January, 1619 is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of English literature and the intellectual history of early modern Europe. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of England's greatest writers and the cultural context in which he lived and worked.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
