Griffith, Reginald Harvey. Alexander Pope. A Bibliography. 2001

Griffith, Reginald Harvey. Alexander Pope. A Bibliography. Austin: University of Texas Press, 1922 & 1927. Mansfield Centre, CT: Martino Publishing, 2001. Cloth. Octavo. Two parts in one. Xxxv.297 + viii. xxxcii-lvii.267-593. New. *Alexander Pope [1688-1744], English poet and Satirist, was the greatest poet and verse satirist of the Augustan period. Pope inherited from John Dryden the verse form that he chose to perfect. He polished his work with meticulous care and, like all great poets, used language with genuine inventiveness. His qualities of imagination are seen in the originality with which he handled traditional forms, in his satiric vision of the contemporary world, and in his inspired use of classical modes. Pope not only wrote poems, he translated Homer, and edited several important editions. Griffith's bibliography is arranged in two parts. Volume one, part one, includes Pope's own writings, 1709-1734. Volume One, part two includes Pope's own writings, 1735-1751. In all, 700 works are described in chronological order. Griffith discusses points, variants and states, and provides very useful annotations. This work remains the standard work to this day. Besterman 4961.
