Description
Suspiria de Profundis and Other Writings is a collection of essays by Thomas De Quincey, a prominent English author of the Romantic movement. This edition brings together some of his most notable works, including "The Affliction of Childhood," which reflects on the death of two sisters in childhood, and "Levana and our Ladies of Sorrow," a thought-provoking piece about the Roman goddess of childbirth.
Originally published in fragmentary form and left unfinished at De Quincey's death in 1859, this edition provides a unique insight into his writing style and thematic concerns. The collection also includes "The English Mail-Coach," which explores the grandeur and power of the English mail-coach system.
Published in 2011, this paperback edition offers an opportunity to engage with De Quincey's distinctive voice and literary perspective. With its concise pages and traditional binding, Suspiria de Profundis and Other Writings is a thought-provoking addition to any literary collection.
