This book offers wideranging coverage of Samuel Johnsons life, work, and reception across fifteen thematically cohesive chapters. Taking as its point of departure William Hazlitts famous comparison between Johnsons prose style and a pendulum, this volume will contest and rebalance the metaphor of the pendulum.
