Résumé
"This collection, then, does not claim to be revolutionary, but it hopes to be revisionary. It sets out from the assumptions that Johnson is easy to love but hard to understand; that there is always some further angle we have not yet grasped; that his readers undergo a persistent experience of having, not without effort, to rethink; and that having made such an effort they may then find themselves in a position to offer new information or new insight. We have tried in this volume, while bearing in mind the wealth of his achievement, to set before our readers some aspects of his writing which have been least well recognized and which have strongest contemporary interest."--Preface, page 8
