Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Literary Remains of Henry Fynes Clinton, Esq., M.A: Consisting of an Autobiography and Literary Journal and Brief Essays on Theological Subjects
The remarks upon various authors and upon edu cation, and occasionally upon political subjects (during the twenty years of his Parliamentary life), which are interspersed, may be deemed not devoid of interest. The notices of his studies will probably be dry and uninteresting to the general reader, but they will not be without their value to the student. They show the course and method of study pursued by an emi nent Scholar, the quantity read and digested in a given time, and the laborious diligence with which he collected materials for his Fasti.' In short, we have here a wise and learned man a man of great natural abilities and extensive acquired knowledge - freely expressing his sentiments upon a variety of subjects, noting down his own experience and progress in the paths of classical literature, and exhibiting sincere and unostentatious piety.
