Bag om The Humorist

The Humorist: Being Essays Upon Several Subjects is a collection of essays written by Thomas Gordon and originally published in 1725. The book contains a series of humorous and satirical essays that cover a range of topics, including politics, religion, literature, and society. Gordon uses his wit and sharp tongue to critique the social and political norms of his time, often poking fun at the hypocrisy and absurdity of those in power. The essays are written in a lively and engaging style, with Gordon's keen observations and clever wordplay making for an entertaining read. The Humorist is a classic work of satire and a testament to the power of humor to expose the follies and flaws of human nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
