In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet
of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and
critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors
offer insights into their own work as well as providing an
accessible and passionate introduction to some of the greatest
poets of our literature. Alexander Pope (1688-1744) was an
essayist, critic, satirist, poet and translator. He published "An
Essay on Criticism" in 1711 and a republished version of "The Rape
of the Lock" in 1714. His "Collected Works" were published in 1717
and he translated the "Iliad and the Odyssey" into English. "The
Dunciad" (1728), one of his most famous works, was a vicious satire
on Dullness featuring many of his contemporaries.
