Oliver Goldsmith's "The Traveller," republished in 1889 by J.P. Lippincott in Philadelphia, is a poem that blends travel literature with philosophical reflection. The work, originally published in 1764, is Goldsmith's contemplation on society and the human condition, drawn from his experiences and observations during his travels across Europe. "The Traveller" is considered one of Goldsmith's most significant works, notable for its exploration of themes such as national characteristics and the value of contentment.
