Riassunto

His troubled friendships with Coleridge, Wordsworth and Southey inspired Thomas De Quincey (1785–1859) to write these candid portraits, which first appeared serially between 1834 and 1840. Published together in 1862 (this reissue is of the 1863 printing), the essays confirmed the Lake Poets as leading figures of English Romanticism.
