Autorenporträt
William Hazlitt (1778-1830) was a prominent English essayist, journalist, and literary critic known for his incisive and eloquent prose. Born in Maidstone, Kent, Hazlitt was educated at home before studying at the Unitarian academy in Newington Green, London. His early career included roles as a portrait painter and a teacher, but he found his true calling in writing and criticism. Hazlitt's work is celebrated for its astute observations on human nature and society. He was a key figure in the Romantic movement, contributing significantly to the literature of his time with his sharp essays and critical reviews. His notable works include Table Talk, a series of essays that offer deep reflections on manners, social behavior, and philosophical issues. Hazlitt's writing is characterized by its conversational style, insightful critique, and emphasis on individual experience. Despite his literary achievements, Hazlitt faced financial difficulties and struggled with personal and political controversies throughout his life. Nonetheless, his legacy endures through his impactful and thoughtful exploration of human behavior and social dynamics.
