Laelius and Hortensia: Or Thoughts on the Nature and Objects of Taste and Genius, in a Series of Letters to Two Friends is a book written by John Stedman in 1782. The book is a collection of letters written by the author to two friends, Laelius and Hortensia, in which he discusses the nature and importance of taste and genius. Stedman explores the role of taste in art and literature, and argues that it is essential for individuals to develop a refined sense of taste in order to appreciate and create great works of art. He also discusses the concept of genius, and argues that it is not solely a matter of innate talent, but is also influenced by education and experience. The book provides a detailed analysis of the relationship between taste and genius, and offers insights into the nature of creativity and artistic expression. Overall, Laelius and Hortensia is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of aesthetic experience, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the arts and humanities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
