Om författaren

Samuel Johnson was born in 1709, in Lichfield, England. The son of a bookseller, Johnson briefly attended Pembroke College, Oxford, taught school, worked for a printer, and opened a boarding academy with his wife's money before that failed. Moving to London in 1737, Johnson scratched out a living visa mer from writing. He regularly contributed articles and moral essays to journals, including the Gentleman's Magazine, the Adventurer, and the Idler, and became known for his poems and satires in imitation of Juvenal. Between 1750 and 1752, he produced the Rambler almost single-handedly. In 1755 Johnson published Dictionary of the English Language, which secured his place in contemporary literary circles. Johnson wrote Rasselas in a week in 1759, trying to earn money to visit his dying mother. He also wrote a widely-read edition of Shakespeare's plays, as well as Journey to the Western Isles of Scotland and Lives of the Poets. Johnson's writing was so thoughtful, powerful, and influential that he was considered a singular authority on all things literary. His stature attracted the attention of James Boswell, whose biography, Life of Johnson, provides much of what we know about its subject. Johnson died in 1784. (Bowker Author Biography) visa färre

Johnson's dictionary: a modern selection av Samuel Johnson

Det är inte många allvarligt menade ordböcker som kan citeras på annat sätt än för att ge en definition; SAOB må vara grundlig och pålitlig, men den är torrare än gammalt snus. Samuel Johnsons ordbok är dock ett undantag, och även om den i sin helhet är lite för skrymmande för att ha i bokhyllan enbart därför finns det en uppsjö olika urval. I min hand har jag nu en kallad Johnson's Dictionary: A Modern Selection.

Här finns, förutom sådana favoriter som »oats. A grain, which in England is generally given to horses, but in Scotland supports the people« och »lexicographer. A writer of dictionaries; a harmless drudge, that busies himself in tracing the original, and detailing the significance of words«, även doktor Johnsons förord, där han förklarar sin märkliga blandning av personlig språklig konservatism och sitt mer liberala urval för ordboken.

Det nöje som sådana uppslag ger till läsaren är dock inte den enda nyttan man kan ha av en sådan ordbok: den kan även mycket väl användas vid läsning av engelska klassiker, i synnerhet som den innehåller ett flertal ord som sedermera rensats ur ordböckerna, till skada för de som undrar vad Shakespeare egentligen kan ha menat (troligen något snuskigt, men man vet ju aldrig).… (mer)
