Andrew Lang 
Letters on Literature 

‚Letters on Literature‘ is an eclectic collection of essays written by the charming and engaging Scotsman, Andrew Lang. Lang’s essays cover an extensive range of literary topics, from ancient to modern literature. Despite his classical education and status as a translator of Homer, Lang’s essays are accessible to all readers, never condescending or snobbish. While he may not rank with other prominent literary critics such as Saintsbury, Leslie Stephen, and John Morley, Lang’s essays are marked by his sheer good-naturedness and a sense of joy in exploring the world of literature.
