Through detailed analyses of the biographers, critics and epigones who carefully crafted and preserved Johnson's life for posterity, Hart explores the emergence of what came to be called 'The Age of Johnson'. Hart shows how late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century Britain experienced the emergence and consolidation of a rich and diverse culture of property. In dedicating himself to Johnson's death, Hart argues, James Boswell turned his friend into a monument, a piece of public property. Through subtle analyses of copyright, forgery and heritage in eighteenth-century life, this study traces the emergence of competing forms of cultural property: a Hanoverian politics of property engages a Jacobite politics of land. Kevin Hart places Samuel Johnson within this rich cultural context, demonstrating how Johnson came to occupy a place at the heart of the English literary canon. 606 $aProperty$xSocial aspects$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aLiterature and society$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aIntellectual property$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aCultural property$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aBiography as a literary form 606 $aEconomics in literature 607 $aGreat Britain$xCivilization$y18th century 615 0$aProperty$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aIntellectual property$xHistory 615 0$aCultural property$xHistory 615 0$aBiography as a literary form. 615 0$aEconomics in literature. 676 $a828/.609 700 $aHart$b Kevin$f1954-$0527726 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818679003321 996 $aSamuel Johnson and the culture of property$94107501 997 $aUNINA
