Publisher Description To mark the tercentenary of Samuel Johnsons birth in 2009, the specially-commissioned essays contained here review his scholarly reputation. An international team of experts reflects authoritatively on the various dimensions of literary, historical, critical and ethical life touched by Johnsons extraordinary achievement. The volume distinctively casts its net widely and combines consistently innovative thinking on Johnsons historical role with a fresh sense of present criticism. Chapters cover subjects as diverse as Johnsons moral philosophy, his legal thought, his influence on Jane Austen, and the question of the Johnson canon. The contributors examine the larger theoretical and scholarly contexts in which it is now possible to situate his work, and from which it may often be necessary to differentiate it. All the contributors have a distinguished record of scholarship in eighteenth-century studies, Johnson scholarship, and cultural history and theory.
