He is now considered one of the greatest critics and essayists in the history of the English language, placed in the company of Samuel Johnson and George Orwell. He is also acknowledged as the finest art critic of his age. Despite his high standing among historians of literature and art, his work is currently little read and mostly out of print.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring his lifetime he befriended many people who are now part of the 19th-century literary canon, including Charles and Mary Lamb, Stendhal, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth, and John Keats. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis works having fallen out of print, Hazlitt's reputation declined. In the late 1990s his reputation was reasserted by admirers and his works reprinted. Two major works by others then appeared: The Day-Star of Liberty: William Hazlitt's Radical Style by Tom Paulin in 1998 and Quarrel of the Age: The Life and Times of William Hazlitt by A. C. Grayling in 2000. Hazlitt's reputation has continued to rise, and now many contemporary thinkers, poets, and scholars consider him one of the greatest critics in the English language, and its finest essayist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2003, following a lengthy appeal initiated by Ian Mayes together with A. C. Grayling, Hazlitt's gravestone was restored in St Anne's Churchyard, and unveiled by Michael Foot. A Hazlitt Society was then inaugurated. The society publishes an annual peer-reviewed journal called The Hazlitt Review.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe last place Hazlitt lived in, on Frith Street in London, is now a hotel, Hazlitt's.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Jonathan Bate novel The Cure for Love (1998) was based indirectly on Hazlitt's life.
