Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Henry Crabb Robinson (1775 1867) was a lawyer, journalist and
indefatigable diarist, who was acquainted with almost all the
important figures in English and European cultural circles. His
surviving writings amount to almost one hundred volumes, from which
this selection was compiled in 1869. He studied at Jena where he
became acquainted with Goethe and Schiller, and became foreign
editor for The Times, despatching eyewitness reports on the Battle
of Corunna. He travelled to Switzerland and Italy with Wordsworth,
and his reminiscences of William Blake are an important source of
information on that visionary. He attended Coleridge's public
lectures, recording not only the content but anecdotes about the
audiences. Other activities included helping found the Athenaeum
Club and University College, London. The combination of anecdote
and critical appraisal of the notables about whom he writes makes
the diaries a valuable source for the culture of the nineteenth
century.
