Charles Lamb (1775-1834) was a writer of romantic prose whose most successful essays appeared in the London Magazine . In this study, Monsman (English, U. of Arizona) considers romantic symbolism in Lamb's prose. Particular attention has been paid to the interplay between Lamb's essay persona, "Elia," and the magazine's other contributors. The volume also features several of Lamb's most celebrated essays in their first London form. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
