In a systematic presentation of Johnson's views on language,
Johnson on Language: An Introduction addresses the problems
inherent in the formation of style, as Johnson saw them, but also
contains a detailed discussion of his opinions concerning the
proper responsibilities of the lexicographer. The wide-ranging
discussion takes in the linguistic controversies of classical
antiquity, the resumption and elaboration of various classical
ideas in the Renaissance period, and the way in which Johnson's own
ideas have been shaped by his reading of important documents of
these eras.
