George Steevens

"Memoir of Robert Levet, the Inmate of Dr. Johnson for near thirty Years. Written by the late George Steevens, Esq. the celebrated Commentator on Shakespeare. (Not published in Boswell's Memoirs of Johnson.)" (53.189-190). Volume 53 of the EM is for January to June, 1808; the account of Levet had appeared, anonymously, in the Gentleman's Magazine for January to June 1785. An editorial footnote in the Gentleman's states that the letter "originally appeared in the St. James's Chronicle, but with some mistakes which are here corrected; and an original letter of Dr. Johnson's is also added" (p. 101). Steevens wrote much for the St. James's Chronicle, and thanks to the EM reprinting of the Gentleman's account we now know the authority for the completest account of Robert Levet.
