(The Complete Unabridged Edition in 6 Volumes)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The Life of Samuel Johnson, LL.D. (1791) is a biography of Dr. Samuel Johnson written by James Boswell. It is regarded as an important stage in the development of the modern genre of biography; many have claimed it as the greatest biography written in English. While Boswells personal acquaintance with his subject only began in 1763, when Johnson was 54 years old, Boswell covered the entirety of Johnsons life by means of additional research. The biography takes many critical liberties with Johnsons life, as Boswell makes various changes to Johnsons quotations and even censors many comments. Regardless of these actions, modern biographers have found Boswells biography as an important source of information. The work was popular among early audiences and with modern critics, but some of the modern critics believe that the work cannot be considered a proper biography. James Boswell, 9th Laird of Auchinleck (29 October 1740 19 May 1795) was a lawyer, diarist, and author born in Edinburgh, Scotland. He is best known for the biography he wrote of one of his contemporaries, the English literary figure Samuel Johnson, which the modern Johnsonian critic Harold Bloom has claimed is the greatest biography written in the English language.</p>...(*_*)8596547783572_<p>In The Life of Samuel Johnson, LL.D., readers are invited into an expansive literary exploration that traverses the compelling biography of one of literatures most towering figures.
