This collection presents the best of Peacock's essays and reviews which, with the exception of The Four Ages of Poetry, are not available outside the ten-volume Halliford edition of the complete works. It will serve as an invaluable companion volume to Peacock's novels, But these essays are not simply of marginal interest as glosses on and parallels to the novels. They stand independently as critical accounts of the spirit of the age in general and particular important figures in the early Romantic period.
