Lives of the English Poets : Waller, Milton, Cowley

In "Lives of the English Poets: Waller, Milton, Cowley," Samuel Johnson presents a fascinating blend of biography and critical analysis, offering insights into the lives and works of three pivotal figures in English literature. Written in the 18th century during a time when literary criticism was emerging as a distinct field, Johnson's prose is characterized by its eloquent clarity and deep understanding of poetic form and context. This work exemplifies his method of intertwining personal anecdotes and historical context, allowing readers to appreciate not only the poets' artistic contributions but their struggles and triumphs within the dynamic literary landscape of their time. Samuel Johnson, a preeminent literary figure and lexicographer, was deeply influenced by the intellectual currents of the 17th century, particularly the metaphysical poets and the evolving narrative of English verse. His own experiences with adversity and the vibrant literary circles in which he moved informed his perceptive evaluations. Johnson's comprehensive background as an author, critic, and compiler of the dictionary provided him with the tools to dissect the complexities of poetic expression and authorial intention. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the foundations of English poetry and literary criticism. Johnson's incisive analysis and rich narrative style not only celebrate the talent of Waller, Milton, and Cowley but also invite readers to reflect on the enduring power of poetry. Readers seeking a deeper understanding of the societal and personal influences that shaped these poets will find Johnson's work both enlightening and compelling.
