William Hazlitt, author of Bookkake’s Liber Amoris, is the subject of this week’s series of evening essays on BBC Radio 3. The philosopher and historian Jonathan Rée is arguing that William Hazlitt was a committed philosopher as well as a great essayist, and on the strength of the first episode, it’s convincing and highly enjoyable stuff.
You can listen to the programmes for up to a week, as they appear, on the BBC programmes site. You can also read Zeeba Sadiq’s introduction to the Bookkake edition of Liber Amoris, read a free ebook, or purchase the book itself.
