Description

John Dryden and His Readers: 1700 explores the poet's final years when he commanded widespread admiration across England's political and literary divides. This scholarly work examines how Dryden's narrative poetry resonated with both Whigs and Tories, appealing equally to women and men, Ancients and Moderns alike. The book traces Dryden's controlled detachment as a narrative technique that allowed him to address history and politics with singular authority. Through analysis of his fables and imitations, the study reveals historical connections Dryden drew between the War of the Roses, the English Civil War, and the Revolution of 1688. By examining how these pivotal events merged in contemporary minds, the work demonstrates Dryden's literary mastery in exploring conflicted loyalties and family strife. Published by Routledge as part of their Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture series, this volume offers scholars and students crucial insights into Dryden's enduring influence on English literary tradition.
