(P/B) THE HISTORY OF RASSELAS, PRINCE OF ABISSINIA
Εκδότης: OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3145-2737

Rasselas and his companions escape the pleasures of the 'happy valley' in order to make their 'choice of life'. By witnessing the misfortunes and miseries of others they may come to understand the nature of happiness, and value it more highly. Their travels and enquiries raise important practical and philosophical questions concerning many aspects of the human condition, including the business of a poet, the stability of reason, the immortality of the soul, and how to find contentment. Johnson's adaptation of the popular oriental tale disp...

(P/B) A DICTIONARY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
AN ANTHOLOGY
Εκδότης: PENGUIN
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3452-3833

Samuel Johnson's Dictionary, published in 1755, marked a milestone in a language in desperate need of standards. No English dictionary before it had devoted so much space to everyday words, been so thorough in its definitions, or illustrated usage by quoting from Shakespeare and other great writers. Johnson's was the dictionary used by Jane Austen and Charles Dickens, Wordsworth and Coleridge, the Brontes and the Brownings, Thomas Hardy and Oscar Wilde. This new edition, edited by David Crystal, will contain a selection from the original, ...

INCLUDING "RASSELAS"
Εκδότης: OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3145-1660

This authoritative edition was formerly published in the acclaimed Oxford Authors series under the general editorship of Frank Kermode. It brings together a unique combination of Johnson's poetry and prose - all the major poems, complemented by essays, criticism, and fiction - to give the essence of his work and thinking. Samuel Johnson's literary reputation rests on such a varied output that he defies easy description: poet, critic, lexicographer, travel writer, essayist, editor, and, thanks to his good friend Boswell, the subject of on...

(P/B) THE LIVES OF THE POETS
A SELECTION
Εκδότης: OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3145-2543

In the last of his major writings, Samuel Johnson looked back over the previous two centuries of English Literature in order to describe the personalities as well as the achievements of the leading English poets. The major Lives - of Milton, Dryden, Swift, and Pope - are memorable cameos of the life of writing in which Johnson is as attentive to human frailty as to literary prowess. The shorter Lives preserve some of Johnson's most piercing, critical judgements. Unsentimental, opinionated, and quotable, The Lives of the Poets continues to ...
