Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an engaging and detailed biography of Daniel Wray, an amiable humanist scholar and antiquary of the 18th century. The author uses a collection of Wray's letters to influential contemporaries to present a vivid portrait of the man and to shed light on the wider intellectual and social context of his time. Wray emerges as a man of great wit and learning, with a passion for literature and the arts, and a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. He was a Fellow of the Royal Society, and a close friend of the second Earl of Hardwicke, the Lord Chancellor. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of scholarship and polite society in the 18th century, and is a valuable contribution to the history of intellectual culture in Britain.
