Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poetical Works, Vol. 5 of 6 Dr. Johnson has written several pages on Milton´s versification, which have been reprinted by Todd as an essay: the whole is written in Johnson´s best manner; but I venture, however presumptuous it may appear, to assert that it is based on a theory wholly wrong. Johnson assumes, as many others have done, that the true heroic verse is the iambic; such as Dryden, Pope, and, I may add, Darwin, have brought to perfection; and that all variations from the iambic foot are irregularities, which may be pardonable for variety, but are still departures from the rule. Upon this ground, Milton is perpetually offending; and that which is among his primary beauties of metre is turned into a fault.
