The Seer: Or Common Places Refreshed is a book written by Leigh Hunt and first published in 1840. The book is a collection of essays, sketches, and literary criticism, covering a wide range of topics including art, literature, politics, and society. The essays are written in a conversational style and are filled with Hunt’s wit and humor. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing essays on various topics, while the second part is devoted to literary criticism. Hunt’s criticism is notable for its focus on the emotional impact of literature, rather than its technical or formal qualities. The Seer: Or Common Places Refreshed is considered a classic of English literature and a valuable resource for those interested in the cultural and intellectual history of the 19th century.In Two Parts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
