Excerpt from Liber Amoris, or the New Pygmalion Been less characteristic of his morose and unsympathetic nature. De Quincey tells us that the book greatly raised Hazlitt in his opinion, for this very reason by shewing him to be capable of stronger and more agitating passions than he believed to be within the range of his nature. All the same, though erotic passion may have seemed foreign to Hazlitt, he had passions vehement enough in other directions.

Rousseau's confession-fictions molded all his life and thoughts. Hazlitt simply wrote the story of his obsession by a nympholeptic idealization of a servant girl. He knew and yet refused wholly to admit that he was an hallucinant upon the subject. Into his rhapsodies, his rages, there entered always a sense of the fact that he was making a fool of himself. He poised, in a mental agony as real as it now appears ridiculous to us, between passion and reason. Men a thousand, as strong, as cultured, as critical as Hazlitt have had such "affairs" before and since. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
