Sobre este artículo
8vo., x, 417; 463, [1]; 406, [42]p., contemporary mottled calf, slightly worn, tastefully rebacked by The Heritage Bindery. Some slight internal stains and foxing but quite an attractive set now housed in a custom brown slipcase. This eminent work of Scottish critical theory gave rise to Dr. Johnson's famous jibe in a jocular quarrel about the achievements of Scotland: Boswell: 'But, Sir, we have Lord Kames.' Johnson: "You have Lord Kames. Keep him; ha, ha, ha! We don't envy you him." On other occasions however, Johnson was at least cautiously complimentary toward Elements of Criticism, calling it 'a pretty essay, and deserves to be held in some estimation, though much of it is chimerical" and telling Arthur Murphy in 1769 that "[Kames] has told us old things in a new way". ESTC T32597.
