The Critical Heritage gathers together a large body of critical sources on major figures in literature. Each volume presents contemporary responses to a writer's work, enabling students and researchers to read for themselves, for example, comments on early performances of Shakespeare's plays, or reactions to the first publication of Jane Austen's novels. The carefully selected sources range from landmark essays in the history of criticism to journalism and contemporary opinion, and little published documentary material such as letters and diaries. Significant pieces of criticism from later periods are also included, in order to demonstrate the fluctuations in an author's reputation. Each volume contains an introduction to the writer's published works, a selected bibliography, and an index of works,authors and subjects. The Collected Critical Heritage set will be available as a set of 68 volumes and the series will also be available in mini sets selected by period (in slipcase boxes) and as individual volumes.

"The Poetical Works of Alexander Pope" is a literary treasury showcasing the brilliance of one of the greatest poets of the Augustan Age. Alexander Pope's collection encompasses a wide array of poetic forms, from his satirical masterpieces to profound philosophical reflections. In "The Rape of the Lock," Pope satirizes the frivolities of high society with exquisite mock-heroic flair, while "The Dunciad" serves as a scathing critique of intellectual mediocrity. Pope's poetic versatility is evident in his translations, including the celebrated rendition of Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey," where he skillfully brings ancient epics to life for a new audience. His heroic couplets, characterized by wit and precision, became iconic in 18th-century literature. Themes of morality, human nature, and the human condition permeate Pope's works. "An Essay on Man" delves into philosophical inquiries with insightful reflections on God, nature, and humanity's place in the universe. Pope's satirical edge is also evident in "The Epistle to Dr Arbuthnot," where he defends his literary pursuits against critics. This collection encapsulates Pope's mastery of language and keen observations, making it an enduring testament to the poetic genius of the Augustan Age. Immerse yourself in the timeless verses of Alexander Pope, where wit, wisdom, and poetic craftsmanship converge to create a literary legacy that resonates through the ages.

Seminar paper from the year 2001 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: very good, University of Paderborn (Anglistics), course: 18th-Century English Satires: Swift and Pope, language: English, abstract: The success of his Essay on Criticism (published in 1711) brought Pope a wider circle of friends, notably Richard Steele and Joseph Addison, who were then collaborating on the journal The Spectator. To this journal Pope contributed the most original of his pastorals, “The Messiah” (1712). He was clearly influenced by The Spectator’s policy of correcting public morals by witty admonishment, and in this vein he wrote the first version of his mock-epic, The Rape of the Lock (two canto version, 1712; five canto version, 1714), to reconcile two Catholic families. It was John Caryll who brought the family quarrel to the attention of Pope. Lord Petre had stolen a lock of Miss Arabella Fermor’s hair, which caused an animosity between the Petres and the Fermors, who had lived in great friendship before. Caryll had been staying with Lord Petre at Ingatestone in Essex, which was the assumed setting of the ‘rape’.1 “Caryll suggested that Pope should ‘write a poem to make a jest of it, and laugh them together again’.”2 Pope treated the dispute between the families as though it were comparable to the mighty quarrel between Greeks and Trojans, which had been Homer’s theme. Telling the story with all the pomp and circumstance of epic made not only the participants in the quarrel but also the society they lived in seem ridiculous. “The Rape owes its richness and resonance to its overstructure of powerful, dangerous motifs.”3 With this opinion, Warren rejects the romantic view of the Rape as a ‘filigree artifice’ of the play with the fires of sex and religion, and he substantiates his argument with the notion that religion in Pope’s mock-epic is replaced by the Baron’s and Belinda’s “altars to Pride and Love”.

C. S. Lewis has been read and studied as though he were two authors--a writer of Christian apologetics and a writer of science fiction and fantasy. Only in recent years has there been any move to examine his work as the creation of a single, unique mind. This is the first major critical study to undertake that task. Chad Walsh, who wrote an earlier study of Lewis, Apostle to the Skeptics, reassesses the Oxford don's legacy fifteen years after his death--his poetry, visionary fiction, and space fiction; The Chronicles of Narnia; Till We Have Faces; his criticism; and his religious-philosophical writing. Lewis emerges as an archetypal Christian and the creator of some of the most original books of our century.
