The sixth is "On the Pleasure of Hating" and is one of the best and most timeless screeds ever written. There are so many fantastic quotes I could pull from this short essay; here is just one: "We grow tired of ever thing but turning others into ridicule, and congratulating ourselves on their defects." I loved this book and highly recommend it. Some contemporary books that contain many of the same elements and same flavor are: Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle, Idiot America: How Stupidity Became a Virtue in the Land of the Free, You Are Not a Gadget: A Manifesto, Denialism: How Irrational Thinking Hinders Scientific Progress, Harms the Planet, and Threatens Our Lives and Bright-sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America. Still as Relevant Now as Then This little book of essays punctured my reluctance to tackle anything written more than a hundred years ago. What a foolish prejudice!

Credits William Hazlitt (April 10, 1778 – September 18, 1830) was an English writer remembered for his humanistic essays and literary criticism , often esteemed the greatest English literary critic after Samuel Johnson . Indeed, Hazlitt's writings and remarks on Shakespeare's plays and characters are rivaled only by those of Johnson in their depth, insight, originality, and imagination. Background Hazlitt came from a branch of Irish Protestant stock that moved in the reign of George I from the county of Antrim to Tipperary. His father, also a William Hazlitt, went to the University of Glasgow (where he was contemporary with Adam Smith ), from which he received a master's degree in 1760. Not entirely content with his Presbyterian faith, he became a Unitarian, joined their ministry, and crossed over to England , where he could minister to other Unitarians. In 1764 he was pastor at Wisbech in Cambridgeshire, where in 1766 he married Grace Loftus, daughter of a recently deceased ironmonger. Of their many children, only three survived infancy. The first of these, John (later known as a portrait painter) was born in 1767 at Marshfield in Gloucestershire, where the Reverend William Hazlitt had accepted a new pastorate after his marriage. In 1770, the elder Hazlitt accepted yet another position and moved with his family to Maidstone, Kent, where his first and only surviving daughter, Margaret (usually known as "Peggy"), was born that year.

HAZLITT, WILLIAM (1778-1830). �Essayist and critic, b. at Maidstone, was the s. of a Unitarian minister. At his father's request he studied for the ministry at a Unitarian Coll. at Hackney. His interests, however, were much more philosophical and political than theological. The turning point in his intellectual development was his meeting with Coleridge in 1798. Soon after this he studied art with the view of becoming a painter, and devoted himself specially to portraiture, but though so good a judge as his friend, J. Northcote, R.A., believed he had the talent requisite for success, he could not satisfy himself, and gave up the idea, though always retaining his love of art. He then definitely turned to literature, and in 1805 pub. his first book, Essay on the Principles of Human Action , which was followed by various other philosophical and political essays. About 1812 he became parliamentary and dramatic reporter to the Morning Chronicle ; in 1814 a contributor to the Edinburgh Review ; and in 1817 he pub.

Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help Hazlitt, William (b . April 10, 1778, Maidstone, Kent, Eng.d. Sept. 18, 1830, Soho, London), English writer remembered above all for his essays, which are of permanent value for their humanity. His writing is ordinary in the best sense, without conscious artistry or literary pretension, and it can be read for sheer enjoyment of the brilliant intellect that informs it. Hazlitt's childhood was spent in Ireland and North America, where his father, a Unitarian preacher, supported the American rebels. The family returned to England when William was nine, settling in Shropshire. At puberty the child, until then described as happy, became somewhat sullen and unapproachable, tendencies that persisted throughout his life. He read intensively, however, laying the foundation of his learning. Having some difficulty in expressing himself either in conversation or in writing, he turned to painting and in 1802 traveled to Paris to work in the Louvre, though war between England and France compelled his return the following year. His friends, who already included Charles Lamb, William Wordsworth, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, encouraged his ambitions as a painter; yet in 1805 he gave his mind to metaphysics and the study of philosophy that had attracted him earlier, publishing his first book, On the Principles of Human Action.

Jacob Zeitlin (1913), one of the earliest of the modern commentators on Hazlitt, finds a “triple ancestry” for the essayist: Montaigne’s “original observation of humanity,” Rousseau’s “high-strung susceptibility to emotions, sentiments, and ideas,” and La Rochefoucauld’s “cynicism.” Hazlitt is consistently cited in histories of the essay as part of a great tradition, and indeed he does conform to certain general norms associated with the genre wherever it is discussed, but he also pushes the boundaries beyond what many would regard as its defining limits, standing back to play the role of psychologist, lecturer, and teacher of both canonical and noncanonical classics.
