Sinossi
Excerpt from Selections From the Works of Samuel Johnson: With an Introduction and Notes
Rasselas is unrepresented because it has been well edited in this Series by Professor Emerson. The selec tions are entire, except the Life of Addison, from which the long quotation of Bennis's tedious remarks on Cato has been in large part omitted. No biographical sketch of Johnson beyond a chronological outline has seemed necessary. If a shorter account than Boswell's is desired, it may be found in Sir Leslie Stephen's Life of Johnson (english Men of Letters), or, shorter still, in his article in the Dictionary of National Biography. Macaulay may be read with interest, but not for Johnson's sake.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of writings by one of the most influential literary figures of the 18th century. As a literary critic, poet, essayist, lexicographer, narrator, biographer, and letter writer, the author's genius was expressed with as much clarity, originality, and power as it was in his conversations, as recorded by his devoted friend, James Boswell. Throughout his body of work, the author's focus was on biography, literature, and the philosophy of life, with an emphasis on the importance of understanding human life through careful observation and study, both through personal experience and historical accounts. His writings stand as a testament to the enduring significance of humanist thought and the power of language to illuminate the human condition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781331060123_0
