Book Review, The Spirit of the Age Contemporary Portraits by William Hazlitt

It’s a book of criticism with an elementary style over mixed details.  Hazlitt’s confused about the red moon idea because he’s generally not really seen one except by text from a poet with decorum and alluring complexity; of course, I’ve never seen the red moon myself except on the internet, a place where I run into Hazlitt’s works as well as astronomy images, so I’ve taken into consideration his smooth flow of information on magazine vanity and whatever’s yet to come.  Newspapers are commented on with a nice touch of skepticism until essay after essay shows resounding text which covers the onslaught of unfortunate information- in particular, Lamb fails to be a fortune teller and Wordsworth shines by telling exaggerations on nature that almost look like pictures but really demonstrate the vividness of random life.  Nonetheless, Hazlitt is a genius because he’s willing to be random at points where it counts, as indicated in his negative appeal to English and French since he’s gone between the two borderlands of romantic communication while absorbing faith on nature where it’s brittle, selfless, and intrinsically magnified.  Astronomy… that sounds like a cliche, huh?  By my phrasing of “magazine text” I’m talking about fashion with the general public, as we still see today with plenty of current societies.  Honestly, Hazlitt and I both think that fashion can be sinful; in regard to pretty appearances or dismissive actions, any and all beauty product and fashion is this collection of agencies of whom many tell you to, basically, cheat- that means showing love where there is no love, giving appearance when there’s difficulty, telling someone to dream even when reality might kill the hope- by whatever means of deception and a sensual lack of focus, fashion teaches people to cheat and to promote troubles which aren’t there, for which Hazlitt claims newspapers may be read to give you the illusion that you’re thinking when really your fallible mind has fallen into discord, rage, and terrible beauty with false names.  The Spirit of the Age is very much a source of religious reflection and philosophical standpoints.  So, sorry, vision is coming at pleasure and ignition for which Hazlitt modulates readers with the utmost genius of refutal, although occasional confusion of Western European dogmas may interrupt his sweetness to let him give off bitter yet enthusiastic opinion which happens to be instigated with approved truths.  Okay, maybe I’m somewhat interrogated by his speech since I myself may be charged for giving English that’s less than communication even if I’m giving subtle hints to the rowdy and noisy crowds out there in the universe, since commotion on Hazlitt’s style and childlike temper may in turn confuse someone if he or she doesn’t expect a special occasion to which commonplace reading does not apply.  Essays in this book are rather formal and conceptual of thinking while Hazlitt acknowledges the differences between individualism and singularity, among societies with discernment and egotistic lies on visuals in text form of his time, yet, whenever I’m pinpointing on his visionary judgement with rather a bit of a whim as a means to explicating dictatorial horror among us, the constitutions that there’ve ever been for England, whether officially or suggestively, must be respected, as such documents are some tinseled gateways on which the Irish critic disputes on casually with indicative naturalism and provocative faith.  Such a book as this can demonstrate political lecture in the form of monumental appeal as exaggerations towards nature are given in proof upon fashionable colors to which artistic merit may either heighten or lower depending on circumstances.
