Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Modern Philology, Vol. 13: 1915-1916 All I could hear of you of late hath been by advertisements in the newspapers by which one would think the race of Curls was multiplied; and by the indignation such fellows show against you, that you have more merit than any body alive could have. Homer himself hath not been worse used by the French. - Gay to Pope, August 2, 1728. The origin and the progress of the Dunciad have been discussed in the biographies of Pope and in several investigations. In the present article I shall pass silently over the matter of origin, and treat only of the events of 1728. I desire, after resuming briefly what is known of the preparation of the poem for the press and of the preparation of the public to receive it, to submit the results of a recent investigation of the contemporary periodicals and pamphlets in so far as they afford information concerning the advertisements of the Dunciad, the dates and varieties of early editions, and their printers and publishers. I. The Preparation Of The Poem For The Press The beginning of the year found the poem well along in composition, if not complete.
