The Rambler (1750) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781436586177)

The Rambler is a collection of essays written by Samuel Johnson and published in 1750. The book is a compilation of 208 essays, each of which is a reflection on various topics ranging from morality, literature, and politics to religion, social issues, and human nature. The essays are written in a conversational style and are intended to be read in small doses, as they offer insights into the human condition and the challenges of everyday life. Johnson's writing is characterized by his wit, wisdom, and insight, and his essays are still considered some of the finest examples of English prose. The Rambler is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of English literature and the development of the essay as a literary form.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
