1. The Poetical Works Of Johnson, Parnell, Gray And Smollett
This book is a compilation of the poetic works of four notable 18th-century British poets: Samuel Johnson, Thomas Parnell, Thomas Gray, and Tobias Smollett. Edited by George Gilfillan, the collection showcases a diverse range of poetry, from the moralistic and neoclassical verses of Johnson to the elegiac tones of Gray, the satirical and humorous lines of Smollett, and the lyrical elegance of Parnell. This anthology not only highlights the individual poetic styles and contributions of each poet but also provides a broader perspective on the literary trends and cultural contexts of the 18th century in Britain.
