| Publisher Description: The letters of Henry Mackenzie (1745-1831), the -man of feeling-, now published for the first time, make up a unique collection of contemporary information on the cultural, intellectual, social, and political setting of their day. They communicate Scottish Enlightenment thought and openness; they follow the socio-cultural and literary cross-currents during one of the most significant periods of modern Scotland, extend their view to England and, though not forgetting regional boundaries and identities, include the European dimension." |
