Politicizing Samuel Johnson: The Moral Essays and the Question of Ideology

is part of College Literature , XXV , 3 , Fall, 1998 , 67-90
«The writer examines the essays of Samuel Johnson as "ideology," using the term as defined by such Marxist thinkers as Antonio Gramsci and Louis Althusser. He contends that while none of the themes of the essays is the exclusive property of a middle class, they are responsive, in the particular way they articulate ideas and attitudes shared by other classes, to the interests and experiences of the 18th-century "middle sort."».
