Rasselas Prince of Abyssinia
Samuel Johnson
Rasselas Prince of Abyssinia
Samuel Johnson
- This edition contains both Volumes I and II. Johnson, one of England’s great literary figures and compiler of the first comprehensive English Dictionary, drew upon the journals of a Jesuit priest to weave this ironic tale of earthly paradise in the happy valley of Abyssinia. Johnson explores the theme of how one chooses the path to true happiness and concludes at the end of the book that it cannot be found in this life, but only after death when one has joined one’s maker.
