520 _a"My Commonplace Book" by J. T. Hackett is a collection of quotations reflecting on thoughts and experiences primarily drawn from the late 19th century. This compilation offers insights into various literary and philosophical ideas, with a significant portion attributed to Hackett's mentor, Richard Hodgson, a significant figure in psychical research and literature. The book serves as a repository of wisdom from both well-known and lesser-known authors, designed for casual reading and contemplation. The opening of "My Commonplace Book" begins with a dedication to Richard Hodgson, showcasing Hackett's admiration for his friend's character and intellect. He shares that many of the quotations are derived from their correspondence, illustrating their deep intellectual bond. The introductory section discusses the nature of commonplace books, emphasizing that this collection is not an anthology but a personal compilation of thoughts that have influenced Hackett's literary journey. This context prepares readers for an eclectic mix of literary reflections and philosophies that underscore the struggles and triumphs of the human experience, along with remarkable literary gems that may have since been forgotten.
