"An Index to the Collected Works of William Hazlitt" by William Hazlitt is a detailed index crafted as a reference guide, likely written during the early 20th century. This work serves as an anthology of Hazlitt’s writings, meticulously organized to allow readers easier access to his essays and critiques. The index reflects the growing appreciation for Hazlitt's contributions to literature, focusing on the arrangement of names and topics covered in his extensive 12-volume collected works. The opening of this index presents a preface by A. R. Waller, explaining the rationale and process behind the compilation. Originally intended as a supplementary section to the twelfth volume of Hazlitt's works, it was expanded into a standalone index due to the discovery of numerous previously unrecognized writings. Waller notes the collaborative effort involved in its creation, acknowledging the contributions of Arnold Glover, who passed away during the project. The text sets up the format of the index, which categorizes names and quotations from Hazlitt’s essays, providing insights into the depth of his literary engagements and the breadth of subjects he wrote about.
