Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dr. Johnson: His Friends and His Critics Though I cannot say with Lord Macaulay that I was never better pleased than when at fourteen I was master of Boswell´s ´Life of Johnson,´ yet I was still a schoolboy when I first read the book. When later on I entered the University of Oxford I was proud as a member of Pembroke College to boast of the great man who is the glory of that society. I little thought, however, in those days that the study of his life was to fill up much of the leisure time of not a few of my busiest years, and that, on my retirement from a laborious occupation, and my recovery from a tedious illness, I should attempt to describe Oxford as it was known to him. It might at first sight seem that he who should at the present day venture to write about Johnson would justly incur the same kind of criticism as that which Johnson himself passed on one of the writers of his time.
