About This Book

This reference volume furnishes a systematic index to Hazlitt's collected essays and papers, chiefly listing names of real and imaginary persons, places, and subjects, together with a curated list of quotations. Editorial notes and a preface outline compilation methods, corrections, and addenda discovered during preparation, explain filing conventions for characters and quotations, and note deliberate omissions to limit length. Cross-references and corrigenda aim to help readers locate writings and variant attributions across the collected volumes.
