Description
Excerpt from Verona: And Other Lectures
OF the five chapters in this volume, the first three belong to the year 1870; the last two date from 1882 - 1885. Three out of the five chapters have been read as lectures and one of the others was meant for delivery at Oxford, though it was replaced, in fact, by a different discourse. Since the latest in date, chapter IV., was written, the Author has not Spoken in public but this paper, Candida Casa, is sufficiently like the rest in form, and closely enough connected with the course on The Pleasures of England, to justify the general title of the volume Verona, and other Lectures.
