The Miscellany is Horace Walpole's third and last "book of materials," or literary notebook. Laris Troide has supplied here a transcription of that text together with an introduction and extensive notes providing the historical, cultural, and literary contexts of Walpole's jottings. The text and notes together give the reader a detailed look at eighteenth-century life and thought.
