Description: New York. 1963. Heritage Press. Reprinted Edition. Very Good in Hardcover. With marginal comments and markings from two copies annotated by Hester Lynch Thrale Piozzi. Prepared for publication with an introduction by Edward G. Fletcher. 1425 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literature England Biography. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Poet, lexicographer, critic, moralist and Great Chain, Dr Johnson had in his friend Boswell the ideal biographer. Notoriously and self-confessedly intemperate, Boswell shared with Johnson a huge appetite for life and threw equal energy into recording its every aspect in minute but telling detail. This irrepressible Scotsman was always studying human nature and making experiments', and the marvellously vivacious Journals he wrote daily furnished him with first-rate material when he came to write his biography. The result is a masterpiece that brims over with wit, anecdote and originality. Hailed by Macaulay as the best biography ever written and by Carlyle as a book beyond any other product of the eighteenth century', The Life of Samuel Johnson today continues to enjoy its status as a classic of the language. inventory #37546

Description: Condition: Includes slipcover in good condition. Boards in excellent condition. Pages are crisp and clean, original owners name written inside front cover. Description: Marginal comments by Mrs. Piozzi. often considered to be one of the finest pieces of biographical writing in the English language. Samuel Johnson was an English poet, essayist, and lexicographer who produced a pioneering and influential Dictionary of the English Language. However, he is less well-known today for his writings than as the biographical subject for Boswell, a lawyer from Scotland who first met Johnson in 1763. During their 21-year friendship, Boswell recorded many of Johnsons sayings and activities using a self-invented form of shorthand. He eventually worked these notes into the massive biography which he published seven years after Johnsons death.
