Description reviews

In an exhaustive Introduction to this new edition of an Augustan classic, Professor R. K. Kaul discusses Pope's intellectual background and his concept of poetry. The Rape of the Lock is examined in detail and its use of thee mock-heroic for the purposes of social satire analysed. Four useful appendices give the first version of the poem, explain the game of Ombre, discuss the heroic couplet, and reproduce the critique of Pope by Sainte-Beuve in translation. Explanatory notes on the text are placed at the foot of each page for easy reference.

Professor Kaul has formerly taught as Senior Professor of English at the University of Rajasthan, Jaipur.
