A Bibliography of the Works of Samuel Johnson

This bibliography by the distinguished Johnson scholar, the late J. D. Fleeman, records Johnson's literary output in chronological order, illuminating not only his multifarious writings but also the development of his career and reputation as a professional writer. It reveals the range of his work and the variety of his anonymous contributions (some of them first identified by Fleeman) to newspapers, magazines, and books by other writers. Detailed analysis of the works examined sheds light on the practices of the 18th-century book trade, and identifies editions, early and late, many of which are valuable and unjustly neglected. The bibliography also lists new editions up to 1984, the bicentenary of Johnson's death, charting the course of his posthumous literary reputation.
