Selections From the Prose of Macaulay

ISBN: 9781332795185 出版年：2016 页码：486 Thomas Babington Macaulay Forgotten Books

These selections are chosen from the entire range of Macaulay's prose works with the exception of his speeches. Although the speeches were edited for publication, some of their individual characteristics of phrase and form were obviously intended for oral rather than for written expression. It is believed, therefore, that by restricting these selections to those compositions especially produced for the reading public, the best and most typical of Macaulay's literary work has been included.
