The Lives of the Poets is a collection of biographical sketches written by Samuel Johnson, one of the most prominent literary figures of the 18th century. The book consists of brief accounts of the lives and works of 52 poets, including John Milton, Alexander Pope, and William Shakespeare. Johnson's aim was to provide a comprehensive overview of the development of English poetry from the 16th to the 18th century, and to offer critical evaluations of each poet's contribution to the genre. The book also includes Johnson's own opinions on various literary and cultural issues of the time, making it a valuable source for understanding the intellectual climate of the period. The Lives of the Poets is considered a classic work of literary criticism and biography, and has had a significant influence on the study of English literature.Gay is represented as a man easily incited to hope, and deeply depressed when his hopes were disappointed. This is not the character of a hero, but it may naturally imply something more generally welcome, a soft and civil companion. Whoever is apt to hope good from others is diligent to please them; but he that believes his powers strong enough to force their own way, commonly tries only to please himself.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
