1. Biographies: The Classical Fiction Writers: Thomas De Quincey (1785-1859). De Quincey's most noteworthy work was CITE Confessions of an English Opium Eater /CITE which first appeared in 1821. As an essayist, the Thomas De Quincey. ( 17851859) De Quincey was the son http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Biographies/Literary/DeQuincey.htm

Thomas De Quincey De Quincey was the son of a Manchester merchant. There were eight children in the family, four girls and four sons. Thomas was born the 15th of August, 1785, the fifth child, the second son. He was but seven years old when his father died; the family, however, due to the success of Mr. De Quincey's business was to be left fairly well off. Mrs De Quincey, in 1796, was to move to the fashionable city of Bath. De Quincey was an able student but was soon caught up with the romantic notions of the age and ran away, ending up wondering around Wales. De Quincey was to write of it: "On leaving school clandestinely, which I did some weeks before my seventeenth birthday, I went into Wales; where I continued for months to walk about. As long as I kept up any negotiations with my guardians, I received a regular allowance of a guinea a week." Eventually he found himself in London in November of 1802. For months thereafter, De Quincey was to live on the streets. Here, in London, he was to pass a number of months "of wild, haggard, Bohemian roaming and staggering from worse to worse!" By the autumn of 1803, De Quincey was back with his family, members of whom prevailed, and, so, it was off to Oxford (Worcester College). He was registered at Oxford for a number of years, though it doesn't seem he spent much time there; he much preferred to go down and spend time at London. From what I can see, he never sat for his degree. (It was at Oxford, incidently, that De Quincey, seemingly, permanently, became addicted to opium.)

Thomas de Quincey, 1785-1859. Although better known as a literary figure, Thomas de Quincey was also a staunch and very eloquent supporter of the Ricardian Classical School . He records his encounter with Ricardian theory in his famous Confessions of an Opium Eater Ricardo's book: and recurring to my own prophetic anticipation of the advent of some legislator for this science, I said, before I had finished the first chapter, "Thou art the man!" Wonder and curiosity were emotions that had long been dead in me. Yet I wondered once more: I wondered at myself that I could once again be stimulated to the effort of reading: and much more I wondered at the book. Had this profound work been really written in England during the nineteenth century? Was it possible? I supposed thinking had been extinct in England. Could it be that an Englishman, and he not in academic bowers, but oppressed by mercantile and senatorial cares, had accomplished what all the universities of Europe, and a century of thought, had failed even to advance by one hair's breadth? All other writers had been crushed and overlaid by the enormous weight of facts and documents; Mr. Ricardo had deduced, à priori , from the understanding itself, laws which first gave a ray of light into the unwieldy chaos of materials, and had constructed what had been but a collection of tentative discussions into a science of regular proportions, now first standing on an eternal basis.

Thomas De Quincey (1785-1859) An Anthology of the English Literature - 19th Century (none) An Anthology of the English Literature - 19th Century íà www.äîì9.cjb.net Thomas De Quincey (1785-1859) Thomas De Quincey, the remarkably gifted son of a wealthy Manchester merchant, ran away from school to live a strange roving life in Wales and London. For five years he studied at the University of Oxford, but left it without a degree. While yet a student he resorted to opium-eating, which unfortunately became a habit with him for the rest of his life. In 1809 he settled at Grasmere, where he spent more than twenty years in the company of the Lake poets. 53455-subscribe@maillist.ru In his best-known work Confessions of an English Opium-Eater De Quincey displays his humane sympathy for all down-trodden and miserable creatures. In the days when he was a "famishing scholar" in London he lived in a large unoccupied house whose only other inmate was "a poor friendless child, apparently ten years old; but she seemed hunger-bitten; and sufferings of that sort often make children look older than they are." His one other friend was a very young street-walker who was kind to him and once actually saved his life. She could easily have been rescued from her degraded state, but "the stream of London charity," De Quincey observes," is not readily accessible to pool' houseless wanderers, for the framework of society is harsh, cruel and repulsive."
