Features of Hazlitt and the Reach of Sense: Criticism, Morals, and the Metaphysics of Power (Oxford English Monographs)
Product DescriptionThe only pretension, of which I am tenacious, wrote Hazlitt, is that of being a metaphysician; but his metaphysics, and particularly what this book identifies as his power principle, has until now been neglected. This exciting book studies Hazlitt's development of the power principle as a counter to the pleasure principle of the Utilitarians, and examines the revelation of power in his philosophy of discourse, his account of imaginative structure, his theory of genius, and his moral theory.ReviewUttara Natarajan's fine monograph on Hazlitt, Hazlitt and the Reach of Sense: Criticism, Morals and the Metaphysics of Power is a rigorous and scholarly text which examines Hazlitt in relation to the history of ideas.' The Year's Work in English Studies, Vol. 79The book as a whole presents a finely tuned, clearly articulated argument for Hazlitt's consistency as philosopher and critic, remarkable for its erudite and lively engagement with Hazlitt's writings, his contemporary influences, and his critics' John KandlAbout the AuthorUttara Natarajan is a Leverhulme Special Research Fellow, Department of English at University of Liverpool.
