520 |a This study is the first to juxtapose pre-existing texts with Samuel Johnson's portrayal of the Orient, particularly Islam and Arab culture. Nassir asserts that Johnson's observations of Islam in both his writings and conversations prove that he did not look at it objectively and was highly biased against Islam and Arab culture in his assessment. The book seeks to furnish the students of eighteenth century English literature, Johnsonian scholars, and orientalists with useful observations of his orientalism as a whole in light of Johnson's life, personality, and period in which he wrote.
