Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Alexander Pope, Esq., Vol. 2 of 10: With Notes and Illustrations; To Which Are Added, a New Life of the Author, an Estimate of His Poetical Character and Writings, and Occasional Remarks That amongst the chief favourites of the muse Pope is entitled to a distinguished rank, no one will be. found to deny. The estimation in which he was held by his contemporaries has been acknowledged by their descendants; and has continued amidst the change of manners, the ordeal of criticism, and the efforts of rival genius, to the present day. Whatever may be the homage we pay to others, there is no author whose works have been more universally read, or are more fully remembered. From the great variety of subjects which they embrace, and the perspicuity, truth, and nature, with which every sentiment is expressed, they seem to have a relation to all our business and concerns, to be in unison with our thoughts and feelings, and to strike a corresponding chord in every bosom; insomuch that there is perhaps no poet, excepting Shakespear alone, whose works are applicable to so many purposes, or are quoted on so many different occasions. Considerations of this nature have not however prevented some writers, and particularly the two last Editors of the works of Pope, from attempting to detract from the high reputation which he has so long enjoyed, and to assign to him only an inferior rank in the scale of poetical excellence. Accordingly, theories have been formed, and rules proposed, by which this decision is to be made. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Works of Alexander Pope, Esq., Vol. 6 of 10: In Verse and Prose Dr. Warton observes, "That the colloquial and burlesque style and measure of Swift, here adopted, did not suit the genius and manner of our Author, who frequently falls back, as was natural, from the familiar into his own more laboured, high, and pompous manner." The observation is so far just, that Pope certainly does not display, in his Imitations of Horace, the ease and familiarity of Swift; but this does not detract from their merit any farther than as professed Imitations of Swift. Neither, are the least like Horace. Dr. Warton's description of Horace's character, as a writer of Epistles and Satires (for it docs not at all apply to him in his Lyric capacity), is, from Cicero de Oratore, lib. i. appropriate and accurate: "Accedit lepos quidam, facetiaeque, et eruditio libero digna, celeritafque et brevitas refpondendi et laceffendi, fubtili venuftate et urbanitate conjuncta."
