Johnson and Goldsmith: Essays by Thomas Babington Macaulay is a collection of literary essays written by the prominent English historian and politician, Thomas Babington Macaulay. The book was first published in 1896 and contains a series of essays that explore the lives and works of two of the most celebrated literary figures of the 18th century, Samuel Johnson and Oliver Goldsmith.The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on Samuel Johnson. Macaulay provides a detailed account of Johnson's life, from his childhood in Lichfield to his rise to fame as a writer, lexicographer, and critic in London. Macaulay also offers insightful commentary on Johnson's major works, including his famous dictionary, his essays, and his plays.The second part of the book is dedicated to Oliver Goldsmith, another prominent literary figure of the 18th century. Macaulay examines Goldsmith's life and works, including his novels, plays, and poetry. He also provides a critical analysis of Goldsmith's writing style and his contribution to the literary landscape of his time.Throughout the essays, Macaulay offers a wealth of historical and literary knowledge, drawing on his own extensive research and scholarship. He also provides a vivid portrait of the social and cultural milieu of 18th century England, offering readers a glimpse into the world of Johnson and Goldsmith and the intellectual and artistic movements that shaped their lives and works.Overall, Johnson and Goldsmith: Essays by Thomas Babington Macaulay is an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in the history of English literature and the lives and works of two of its most iconic figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
