Isaac Disraeli (1766-1848) was a distinguished English author and literary scholar, best known for his engaging work, 'Curiosities of Literature'. Born in London into a Jewish family, his extensive literary output evidenced a deep passion for history and an insatiable curiosity about the quirkier aspects of historical writings and authors. 'Curiosities of Literature', comprising anecdotes, characters, sketches, and observational essays, is a testament to Disraeli's eclectic interests and erudition. This seminal work reflects the author's witty and discursive style, through which he explores various oddities and lesser-known incidents from the annals of literature. His writings not only illuminate the Enlightenment period's intellectual ethos but also provide a window into the literary culture of his time. Disraeli's approach to scholarship, characterized by a blend of personal reflections and rigorous historical enquiry, paved the way for a genre that would entertain and inform in equal measure. As the father of British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, he instilled in his son a profound respect for the written word, and his own contributions to English literature remain notable for their depth and charm.
