Samuel Johnson

    18 settembre 1709 – 13 dicembre 1784

    Samuel Johnson fu una figura di spicco delle lettere inglesi, rinomato per i suoi contributi come poeta, saggista, moralista, critico e lessicografo. Le sue penetranti intuizioni sulla condizione umana e il suo distintivo stile di prosa hanno lasciato un segno indelebile nella letteratura. Il rigoroso approccio intellettuale di Johnson e la sua profonda bussola morale sono evidenti nel suo diversificato corpus di opere, che continua a plasmare il discorso letterario. È celebrato non solo per il suo fondamentale dizionario, ma anche per le sue incisive valutazioni critiche e biografie di importanti poeti, consolidando la sua eredità di preminente uomo di lettere.
