These first two volumes in a four-volume edition of Dryden's poems
are the result of a complete reappraisal of the canon, text and
context of his work. The text has been prepared from a fresh
examination of the early printed editions, and takes account of the
large number of manuscript copies which survive. Two recently
discovered poems are included here for the first time. Headnotes to
each poem provide details of the poem's date, publication history,
sources and contemporary reception. Detailed explanations are given
of the controversies addressed in his political poems, and
particular attention is paid to Dryden's translations from
classical writers including Virgil, Horace, Ovid and Lucretius.
Volume I covers the poems of Dryden from 1649 to 1681.
