Samuel Johnson

    18 september 1709 – 13 december 1784

    Samuel Johnson was een vooraanstaand figuur in de Engelse letteren, bekend om zijn bijdragen als dichter, essayist, moralist, criticus en lexicograaf. Zijn scherpe inzichten in de menselijke conditie en zijn kenmerkende proza hebben een onuitwisbare indruk op de literatuur achtergelaten. Johnson's strenge intellectuele benadering en diepgaande morele kompas zijn duidelijk zichtbaar in zijn diverse oeuvre, dat de literaire discussie blijft vormgeven. Hij wordt niet alleen gevierd om zijn baanbrekende woordenboek, maar ook om zijn scherpe kritische beoordelingen en biografieën van belangrijke dichters, wat zijn nalatenschap als een vooraanstaand man van letters verstevigt.
