Description

Explores the phenomenon of literary mentoring and the role that it played in Samuel Johnsons literary and personal life. Synthesizing this model with Levinsonian psychosocial theories of adult development, it explores Johnsons relationships with Cornelius Ford, Richard Savage, Oliver Goldsmith, Hester Thrale, Frances Burney, and James Boswell, tracing how each relationship interweaves with stages in Johnsons psychological development. It also examines mentoring themes in Johnsons early poetry.
