such writers as Mackenzie, the Man of Feeling,' or Mrs. Inchbald, the hero of whose 'Nature and Art,' for example, is a rehabilitation of the conventional savage of Rousseau, or of Voltaire's 'Ingénu;' and by that sickly school amongst whom Miss Seward was an accepted critic, whose greatest luminary was Hayley, and whose poetical impulse is represented by the Della Crusca verses, reinembered only as provoking Gifford's Baviad and Mæviad '-itself the forgotten and expiring utterance of the old Popian satire. For romanticism we have Mrs. Radcliffe, who reproduced on a larger scale and in a more serious spirit, the machinery of Walpole's 'Castle of Otranto.' In the coming generation, the impulses thus briefly noticed gave birth to the romanticism of Scott, the nature-worship of Wordsworth, and the sentimentalism of Byron or Shelley. But those great men represent a far wider and deeper and more complex movement of thought, nor do the names by which we label them at all adequately represent their significance. I have reached the opening of a new period in the history of thought; and here I must pause, without even venturing to cast the most perfunctory glance upon later developments. NOTE TO CHAPTER XII.
