First published in 1978 English Verse Satire aims to provide a
critical study of the major English verse satirists as well as an
account of the historical development of verse satire. Critical
accounts are offered of important writers including Donne, Vaughan,
Butler, Rochester, Dryden, Oldham, Swift, Pope, Young, Dr. Johnson
and Churchill. An account of verse satire commences historically
with the Roman satirists and Dr Selden has provided a substantial
treatment of Horace and Juvenal as the basis for a study of the
evolution of verse satire from the Elizabethan period to the end of
the Augustan period. A special feature of the book is the emphasis
on tradition, continuity, and innovation. This book is an
interesting read for scholars of English literature.
