The Search for Good Sense: Four Eighteenth-Century Characters: Johnson, Chesterfield, Boswell and GoldsmithBloomsbury Publishing, 19 nov. 2015 - 384 pagini Best known for his guide on writing and recognizing good prose, Style (1955), F.L. Lucas addresses four of the most popular 18th-century English poets and writers in this book: Samuel Johnson, Lord Chesterfield, James Boswell and Oliver Goldsmith.
