He resided briefly at John Milton's house, undoubtedly finding inspiration within its walls. An engraving immortalizes Hazlitt himself; it is through these depictions that we can visualize the man behind the words. His piercing gaze reflects both intellect and passion as he continues to captivate readers even today. In a collection titled "Four London Houses of Famous Men, " published between 1926-1927 by McLeish, we find mention alongside other luminaries such as Charles Lamb. These houses serve as physical reminders of their intellectual contributions to society. Speaking of Charles Lamb, another esteemed English essayist from the early 20th century, he shared a close bond with Hazlitt. Their friendship further solidifies their place in literary history and showcases their mutual admiration for each other's work.
