520 _a"Essays in English Literature, 1780-1860" by George Saintsbury is a collection of critical essays written in the late 19th century. The work offers a deep analysis of various authors and their contributions to English literature during a significant transformational period. Saintsbury discusses literary criticism's nature and contemplates the merits of the writers being scrutinized, emphasizing figures who have not always received the accolades they deserve. The opening of this collection introduces the essays, revealing that the first piece discusses the various kinds of literary criticism. Saintsbury articulates the complexities and debates surrounding literary critique and its relevancy to both reviewers and authors. He outlines the essays' subject matter, emphasizing their chronological approach and the connection between the authors being discussed, who produced work during a pivotal decade. At the heart of this introduction lies Saintsbury's belief in the necessity of comparative criticism and the importance of studying literary history to provide a well-rounded judgment on the literary figures of his time.
