	The Life Study of Alcoholism: Putting Drunkenness in Biographical Context
		His long-suffering spouse was, however, a model of forbearance (she and Boswell shared a deep and genuine affection), and Boswell was overcome with guilt and remorse when he was informed of this behavior (which generally occurred as a part of "alcoholic flouts").
		The serious problem Boswell's conduct created for him was that it tended to set up a vicious cycle: loose living eroded his self-esteem, always a quality in short supply, and the lower his self-esteem sank, the more recourse he had to drinking and whoring.
		Boswell's life — as it appears through the Johnson biography — "is lively with the ordinary round of eating, talking, and visiting; it is a study of vitality: a crowded canvas of animated figures, against the background of London, representing the full tide of human existence" (p.

	James Boswell
		A Thomas Boswell (said upon doubtful evidence to have been a minstrel in the household of James IV) was killed at Flodden, and since 1513 the family had greatly improved its position in the world by intermarriage with the first Scots nobility.
		Boswell's freshness at the table of conversation gave a new zest to every maxim that Johnson enunciated, while Boswell developed a perfect genius for interpreting the kind of worldly philosophy at which Johnson was so unapproachable.
		Boswell is almost equally admirable as a reporter and as an interviewer, as a collector and as a researcher.

	Boswell Critique
		Boswell's use of Eusebius's silence ("yet nowhere does he use the word with supposedly mean 'homosexual' in Paul's writings" [Boswell at 346]) is misleading because Eusebius did use the verbal form in a context suggesting homosexual behavior.
		Clement of Alexandria is the most interesting [Boswell at 346]; however, he had a penchant for provocative language against homosexuality, likening it to the behavior of a hyena for example, so it is not surprising that he did not use such a rare and euphemistic word.
		Boswell's general argument, apart from a facile consideration of the context, relies too much on the argument from silence and an egregious etymological analysis.

		John Eastburn Boswell was one of the late twentieth century's most influential historians of homosexuality and author of one of the first book-length histories on the subject.
		Many historians of gay life regarded Boswell's history of "gay people" in European antiquity as anachronistic, especially since it stood deliberately at odds with a growing scholarly consensus that social identities grounded in sexual practice had their origins only in the late nineteenth century.
		Boswell was frequently painted by his colleagues in the field as the essentialist par excellence.

	Penguin Reading Guides \| Boswell's Presumptuous Task \| Adam Sisman
		In Boswell's own case, Sisman shows that far from being a sycophantic recorder of Johnson's brilliant conversations, Boswell exerted a high degree of literary skill in crafting, editing, and in some cases altering his subject's remarks.
		Boswell was anxious that his journal might be used against him, but he was haunted by a morbid fear of evanescence and a sense that his life meant nothing unless it were recorded.
		Boswell appears to be trapped between the Scylla and Charybdis of inauthenticity on the one hand, and literary incompetence on the other.

	Boswell's Life of Johnson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-20)
		The text of this edition of Boswell's Life of Samuel Johnson, LL.D. is taken from the two-volume Oxford edition of 1904; in a few places I've corrected errors by comparing the text with that of G. Hill and L. Powell, 6 vols.
		Boswell uses an asterisk to indicate the works Johnson acknowledged as his own, and a dagger to indicate those he attributed to Johnson on internal evidence.
		The footnotes -- including both those by early editors (the Boswells, Malone, Croker, andc.) and the Oxford editors -- are numbered sequentially through each file (i.e., each year), and placed at the end of that file.

		If Boswell were alive today and using videotape instead of a quill pen, the talk shows would have him as their constant guest.
		Boswell loves describing everything--from his elicit love affair with an actress to the bout of venereal disease he contracted as a result; from his strained relationship with his father to his rather clingy relationship with Johnson.

		Boswell's complex motives in making the tour are also explored, including his divided views concerning his Scottish identity, and his desire at a concealed level to replay the heroic venture of Prince Charles Edward thirty years before.
