Produktbeschreibung

We do not, it should seem, sufficiently attend to the difference there is betwixt a Man of Wit, a Man of Sense, and a True Poet. Donne and Swift were undoubtedly men of wit, and men of sense: but what traces have they left of pure poetry? It is remarkable, that Dryden says of Donne, "He was the greatest wit, though not the greatest poet, of this nation. Fontenelle and La Motte are entitled to the former character; but what can they urge to gain the latter? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
