Items related to The Imagination: And Other Essays (Classic Reprint)
Orts, a doubt has arisen in my mind as to its fitting the nature of the volume. It could hardly, however, be imagined that 1associate the idea of worthlessness with the work contained in it. No one would insult his readers by offering them what he counted valueless scraps, and telling them they were such. These papers, those two even which were caught in the net of the ready-writer from extempore utterance, whatever their merits in themselves, are the results of by no means trifling labour. So much a man ought to be able to say for his work. And hence I might defend, if not quite justify my title for they are but fragmentary presentments of larger meditation. My friends at least will accept them as such, whether they like their collective title or not.

About the Author:
George MacDonald was a Scottish author and minister best known for his fairy tales and fantasy novels.

MacDonald s work influenced many fantasy writers including J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, and Madeleine L Engle; he is recognized as a mentor to Lewis Carroll and heavily influenced Carroll s decision to submit Alice s Adventures in Wonderland for publication. MacDonald was a prolific writer, and penned such fantasy classics as Phantastes, The Princess and the Goblin, and Lillith. George MacDonald died in 1905.
