Mere Literature (1896)

Wilson also examines the works of several prominent authors, including Shakespeare, Emerson, and Tennyson, and analyzes the themes and messages conveyed in their writings. Throughout the book, Wilson emphasizes the importance of reading and studying literature as a means of personal growth and intellectual development.
