Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Dryden (1631 - 1700) was an English poet, literary critic, translator, and playwright who was appointed England's first Poet Laureate in 1668. He is seen as dominating the literary life of Restoration England to such a point that the period came to be known in literary circles as the Age of Dryden. Dryden was born in the village rectory of Aldwincle near Thrapston in Northamptonshire, where his maternal grandfather was rector of All Saints. After the Restoration, as Dryden quickly established himself as the leading poet and literary critic of his day, he transferred his allegiances to the new government. Along with Astraea Redux, Dryden welcomed the new regime with two more panegyrics: To His Sacred Majesty: A Panegyric on his Coronation (1662) and To My Lord Chancellor (1662).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An heroic poem (truly such) is undoubtedly the greatest work which the soul of man is capable to perform. The design of it is to form the mind to heroic virtue by example; it is conveyed in verse that it may delight while it instructs. The action of it is always one, entire, and great. The least and most trivial episodes or under- actions which are interwoven in it are parts either necessary or convenient to carry on the main design.

Book Synopsis The Neo-classic Mock Epic and Its Relation to Epic and Satire by : Sister M. Francesca Cabrini Weber
Download or read book The Neo-classic Mock Epic and Its Relation to Epic and Satire written by Sister M. Francesca Cabrini Weber and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The present study is interested in discovering why the mock epic should rise to such widespread popularity; what constituted its special appeal; why, in fact, the peak of its development should be almost coterminous with the general limits of this age. Even if we attribute much of this prominence to the genius of a poet such as [Alexander] Pope, we must still account for the interest which it elicited from him." Examined works include Alexander Pope's "The Rape of the Lock" and "The Dunciad" and Samuel Garth's "The Dispensary."--The Introduction, l.1
Download or read book Satires written by Horace and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Satires of Horace offer a hodgepodge of genres and styles: philosophy and bawdry; fantastic tales and novelistic vignettes; portraits of the poet, his contemporaries, and his predecessors; jibes, dialogue, travelogue, rants, and recipes; and poetic effects in a variety of modes. For all their apparent lightheartedness, however, the poems both illuminate and bear the marks of a momentous event in world history, one in which Horace himself played an active role--the death of the Roman Republic and the birth of the Principate. John Svarlien's lively blank-verse translation reflects the wide range of styles and tones deployed throughout Horace's eighteen sermons or conversations, deftly reproducing their distinctive humor while tracking the poet's changing mannerisms and moods. David Mankin's Introduction offers a brief account of the political upheavals in which Horace participated as well as the social setting in which his Satires were produced, and points up hallmarks of the poet's distinctive brand of satire. His detailed commentary offers a behind-the-scenes look at Roman society and an often between-the-lines examination of a key work of one of Rome's sharpest observers.
Download or read book Satires and Epistles written by Horace, and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exuberantly mocking the vices and pretensions of his Roman contemporaries, Horace's Satires are stuffed full of comic vignettes, moral insights, and his pervasive humanity. Boasting famous episodes such as the fable of the town mouse and the country mouse and the grotesque dinner party given by the nouveau-riche Nasidienus, these poems influenced not only contemporaries such as Juvenal, but also English satirists from Ben Jonson to W. H. Auden. In the Epistles, Horace used the form of letters to explore questions of philosophy and how to live a good life. Perhaps the best-known epistle, "The Art of Poetry" (Ars poetica), still influences the work of writers today. These new prose translations by John Davie perfectly capture the lively, scurrilous, and frequently hilarious style of the satires, and the warm and engaging persona of the more meditative epistles. Robert Cowan's introduction and notes take account of the latest scholarship, placing Horace's poems within the development of Roman satire, and exploring the themes of philosophy, morality, sex and gender, literary criticism, politics, and patronage. About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, voluminous notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Download or read book Beyond Anger written by Susan H. Braund and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1988-11-24 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Anger is a detailed literary analysis of the three poems which make up Juvenal's third book of Satires (i.e. Satires 7, 8 and 9). Dr Braund pays particular attention to the satiric techniques Juvenal employs in this book, arguing that in Book III Juvenal uses a new, ironic persona, which makes his satire more indirect, subtle and double-edged than does the angry approach found in the earlier books.
