Aspects of Samuel Johnson: Essays on His Arts, Mind, Afterlife, and PoliticsUniversity of Delaware Press, 2005 - 417 頁 Howard D. Weinbrot's Aspects of Samuel Johnson: Essays on His Arts, Mind, Afterlife, and Politics collects earlier and new essays on Johnson's varied achievements in lexicography, poetry, narrative, and prose style. It considers Johnson's uses of the general and the particular as they relate to the reader's role in the creative process, his complex approach to the concept of literary genre, and his resolutely in-human view of skepticism. |
