Description

Explore the literary legacy of Nicholas Rowe, the first Poet Laureate of the Georgian era. This volume, part of The Pickering Masters series, focuses on Lucan's Pharsalia (Books IV-X). Rowe remains a significant yet often overlooked figure in eighteenth-century literature, frequently described as the 'lost Augustan'. This edition provides a deep look into Rowe's mastery of the early eighteenth-century theatre. It examines how his plays addressed the political and social concerns of his time, reflecting a period when the theatre faced significant crisis. Readers will find insights into his ability to provide significant roles for women and his specific political and historical stances. This volume is an essential resource for those studying the development of English literature and the social dynamics of the Georgian period.
