This lively, accessible book reveals the character - and timeliness
- of Alexander Pope's thinking and art. G. Douglas Atkins focuses
on the religious position of a poet who would not abandon the Roman
Catholic Church. In our own highly partisan culture, such a
position offers an important example. Bringing his expertise in
religion and literature to bear, Atkins establishes that Pope was,
as an anti-sectarian, not a Deist but a Catholic, a layman, and
essayist. Through comparison with John Dryden, Jonathan Swift, and
T.E. Eliot, this study sheds new light on 'The Universal Prayer, '
'An Essay on Criticism, ' Moral Essays, and the four-part Dunciad.
Ultimately, Pope emerges as a religious poet of the first rank.
