LECTURES ON THE ENGLISH COMIC

WRITERS

BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE

The first edition (here reprinted) was published in 1819 in one 8vo. volume (343 pp.), with the following title-page :-'Lectures on the English Comic Writers. Delivered at the Surry Institution. By William Hazlitt. "It is a very good office one man does another, when he tells him the manner of his being pleased." Steele. London: Printed for Taylor and Hessey, 93. Fleet Street. 1819.' The volume was printed by J. Miller, Noble Street, Cheapside. The 'third edition' (the second having been presumably a mere re-print of the first), edited by the author's son and published by Templeman, appeared in 1841, and included some additions collected from various sources. These additions are referred to in the notes to the present volume. The first edition was republished by Mr. W. C. Hazlitt in Bohn's Library in 1869, and the third edition has quite recently been included in the Temple Classics series 'under the immediate editorial care of Mr. Austin Dobson' (1900).
