Description

Explore the final years of a literary giant with John Dryden and His Readers: 1700. Part of the Routledge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture series, this work examines Dryden at the end of his life when he was admired and beloved throughout England. This study focuses on his unique ability to maintain controlled detachment, a skill that allowed him to write about history and politics during a transformative period. The text explores how his narrative poetry appealed to a wide audience, including Whigs and Tories, men and women, and both Ancients and Moderns. Gain insight into how Dryden used imitations to suggest historical links between the War of the Roses, the Civil War, and the Revolution of 1688. The book also analyzes his fables, which reflect themes of conflicted loyalties and family strife that resonated with his contemporaries. This is an essential resource for students and scholars of Renaissance literature and English history.
