By Robert Dick

Book Overview

""Tracts For The Improvement Of Our Popular Literature, No. 1-2"" is a collection of two tracts written by Robert Dick and published in 1846. The tracts aim to improve the quality of popular literature in society by addressing issues such as the lack of education and the prevalence of sensationalism and immorality in literature. In the first tract, Dick argues that popular literature should be educational and promote moral values, rather than simply entertaining readers. He suggests that authors should write with a purpose and that readers should be discerning in their choices of literature. The second tract focuses on the importance of education and the need for accessible and affordable education for all members of society. Overall, ""Tracts For The Improvement Of Our Popular Literature, No. 1-2"" offers a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the state of popular literature in the mid-19th century and provides valuable recommendations for improving it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
