Description
The Life of Johnson V4 is a biography written by George Birkbeck Hill about the famous English writer and lexicographer Samuel Johnson. This volume is the fourth in a series of books that cover Johnson's life and works. The book provides a detailed account of Johnson's life, including his childhood, education, literary career, and personal relationships. It also delves into his struggles with depression and physical ailments, as well as his political and social views. The author draws on a wealth of primary sources, including Johnson's letters and diaries, to paint a vivid portrait of this complex and fascinating figure. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and works of Samuel Johnson, as well as for those interested in the literary and cultural history of 18th-century England.'Hospitality to strangers and foreigners in our country is now almost at an end, since, from the increase of them that come to us, there have been a sufficient number of people that have found an interest in providing inns and proper accommodations, which is in general a more expedient method for the entertainment of travellers. Where the travellers and strangers are few, more of that hospitality subsists, as it has not been worth while to provide places of accommodation. In Ireland there is still hospitality to strangers, in some degree; in Hungary and Poland probably more.'This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
