The Literature And Literati Of Bath: An Essay (1854) by Monkland is a comprehensive exploration of the literary scene and prominent literary figures of the English city of Bath during the 18th and 19th centuries. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Bath's literary culture, including its famous literary societies, bookshops, and libraries. Monkland provides detailed biographical information on many of the city's most famous writers, such as Jane Austen, who lived in Bath for several years and set two of her novels there. He also discusses other notable literary figures, such as Samuel Johnson, who visited Bath frequently and wrote extensively about the city in his diaries and letters. Throughout the book, Monkland provides a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural context of Bath's literary scene, discussing the role of women writers, the importance of literary salons, and the impact of the city's spa culture on its literary output. Overall, The Literature And Literati Of Bath: An Essay is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the literary history of Bath or the broader context of English literature during the 18th and 19th centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
