An impression of Charles Lamb and the ideas and feelings that helped to shape the Intellectual climate of his times. 1775-1834
' A little dark old fellow. One could only distinguish a head, then big shoulders, then a delicate body, and finally two artistically slender legs, which were almost imperceptible. Under his arm was a green umbrella, and over his eyes a very old hat. There was neither health nor strength, and scarcely sufficient reality in those poor spindles, clothed in stockings of Chinese silk, ending in impossible feet, encased in large shoes, which placed flatly on the ground advanced in the manner of a web-footed creature. But one did not notice these singularities. It seemed as if something purely intellectual was before you. Wit, sweetness, melancholy and gaiety gushed in torrents from this extraordinary physiognomy.'
With the voices of CHRISTOPHER BIDMEAD , CAROLE BOYD , ALAN DUDLEY. MALCOLM HAYES , ANNE JAMESON , HAYDN JONES. DENIS MCCARTHY , CLIFFORD NORGATE , HECTOR ROSS , JOHN RYE, JOHN SAMSON , JAMES WATTS and PETER WOODTHORPE
