Sobre este artículo
Hardback. Good. For J Tonson, London, 1717, first edition of this collection; 8vo, pp [xx, being the publisher's introductory essay], 536; contemporary panelled calf, a little rubbed in places and with the front board weak; internally clean and firm; contemporary ownership inscriptions on the title, the older of "Eli. Stannard" with a date that may be 1722 or 1733 and a later "Mary Stannard her Book given her by Mrs Elinor Stannard Nov 15th 1767". Dillon's Essay on Translated Verse, included here, was first published in 1684 and led, together with his earlier blank verse translation of the Ars Poetica, to his reputation as a didactic writer and critic, a poet concerned with the importance of a good moral approach in his poetry and the necessity of being fastidious in his writing. He was the first critic to write admiringly of Milton's Paradise Lost. He was much admired by Pope.
