New Curiosities of Literature V2: And Book of the Months (1847) is a collection of essays and articles by the British author, George Soane. The book is a sequel to Soane's earlier work, Curiosities of Literature, which was published in 1791. In this volume, Soane explores a wide range of topics, including literature, history, and culture. He discusses famous authors such as Shakespeare and Milton, as well as lesser-known figures such as the French writer, Jean-Baptiste Rousseau. Soane also delves into the history of printing and publishing, the origins of the English language, and the customs and traditions of different cultures. The book is divided into twelve sections, each corresponding to a month of the year. Soane uses this framework to organize his essays and to provide a sense of the passing of time. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the literary and cultural world of the mid-19th century, and a testament to Soane's erudition and curiosity.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
