About this episode
Presents the major literary contributions and biographical history of the 18th-century English poet Alexander Pope. Edited by Thomas Marc Parrott in 1906, the volume includes famous works like the mock-epic The Rape of the Lock, the technical manual An Essay on Criticism, and the philosophical An Essay on Man. The introductory materials seek to rehabilitate Pope’s reputation, portraying him as a resilient artist who maintained his intellectual independence despite lifelong physical suffering and religious persecution. Through detailed poems and analytical notes, the text highlights Pope’s mastery of the heroic couplet and his role as a pivotal figure in the classical movement of English literature. Ultimately, the source serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding how Pope’s meticulous craftsmanship and sharp social commentary shaped the literary standards of his era.
