Excerpt from Lothair A distinguished individual has suggested that, in a preface to this edition of my collected works, I might give my own views of the purport of Lothair. It strikes me, with all deference, that it would be not a little presumptuous for an author thus to be the self-critic of volumes which appeared only a few months ago.

Excerpt from Lothair A distinguished individual has suggested that, in a preface to this edition of my collected works, I might give my own views of the purport of Lothair. It strikes me, with all deference, that it would be not a little presumptuous for an author thus to be the self-critic of volumes which appeared only a few months ago. Their purport to the writer seems clear enough, and as they have been more extensively read both by the people of the United Kingdom and the United States than any work that has appeared for the last half cen tury, I will even venture to assume that on this point they are of the same opinion as myself. But on some other works, the youngest of which were written a quarter of a century ago, it would perhaps be in me not impertinent now to make a few remarks. Coningsby, Sybil, and Tancred form a real Trilogy; that is to say, they treat of the same subject, and endeavor to complete that treatment. The origin and character of our political parties, their influence on the condition of the people of this country, some picture of the moral and physical condition of that peo ple, and some intimation of the means by which it might be elevated and improved, were themes which had long engaged my meditation.
