Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1844 to an audience of young men involved with literary culture and ambition, explores the profession and nature of authorship through the lens of personal experience and astute observation.

By contrasting practice between the 19th century literary scene and previous periods in literary history, the author explores how the place of an author in society influences their writing. The author also examines the materialistic and economic elements of the vocation, including its potential financial instability. Ultimately, this book provides a unique perspective on the life of an author, one that emphasizes the real and noble nature of the profession, while acknowledging the challenges and contradictions it entails.
