'A Dish of Orts' is a collection of essays and papers on various subjects written by George MacDonald. Though the title may suggest that the work is of little value, the author insists that these are the result of his labor and thought. The volume covers topics such as the imagination, Shakespeare, literature, and medicine, among others. Notably, the essay on the 'Fantastic Imagination' seeks to explain elements in some of his earlier fairy tales. MacDonald's insights into the workings of the human mind and spirit are evident throughout the collection, making it a valuable read for those interested in philosophy and literature.
