A volume of literary portraits and appreciations reprinted mainly from the Edimnburgh Review, London Mercury,Modern Languages Review and Fortnightly Review. Mr. Gosse is usually more interested in the personalities of his subjects than in their works and he is often able to add some personal reminiscence to his studies. The longest essay, a biographical study of Henry James, contains scarcely any literary criticism. Some excursions into French literary history are included. Contents: George Eliot; Henry James; Samuel Butler; A note on Congreve; The first draft of Swinburne's "Anactoria"; The Hôtel de Rambouillet; Malherbe and the classical reaction; The foundation of the French academy; Rousseau in England in the nineteenth century; The centenary of Leconte de Lisle; Two French critics: Emile Faguet-- Remy de Gourmont; The writings of M. Clemenceau; A visit to the friends of Ibsen; Fairyland and a Belgian Ariosto; Some recollections of Lord Wolseley; Index.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

First impressions are everything. They dictate whether something stands out, how we engage with it, whether we buy it, and how strongly we feel. In Judge This, the reader travels through a day in the life of renowned designer Chip Kidd as he takes in first impressions of all kinds. We follow this visual journey with Kidd as he encounters and engages with everyday design, breaking down the good, the bad, the absurd and the brilliant as only a designer can. From the design of the paper you read in the morning to the subway ticket machine to the books you browse to the smartphone you use to the packaging for the chocolate bar you buy as an afternoon treat, Kidd will reveal the hidden secrets behind each of the design choices, with a healthy dose of humour, expertise and judgment

Henry James criticized the impressionism movement, yet time and again used the word 'impressio' to represent his characters's consciousness, as well as the work of the literary artist. This book explores this anomaly, placing James's work within the wider cultural history of impressionism.
