Who was Barnaby Snap? Barnaby Snap (1770-1830) was a Dutch writer who moved to London in 1792. While in England he kept writing in his native language. All of his work, including a gothic romance, a book on hermits & countless essays on the mechanisation of literature, have only been published in small numbers, nothing survived. Snap was a good friend of William Hazlitt & a ferocious chess player.
