Hardcover with dust jacket. Zustand: Sehr gut. 245 p. Sehr gutes Exemplar ohne Anstreichungen / a good copy without markings. - First published in 1733-1734, An Essay on Man, Alexander Popes best-known philosophical poem, was highly praised by many of Popes European contemporaries, including Voltaire, Rousseau, Kant, and Hume. Voltaire called An Essay on Man the most beautiful, most useful, most sublime didactic poem in the English language, but what was formerly regarded as the pinnacle of 18th- century poetry now languishes largely unread or misread as a quaint period piece. Harold Bloom recently described the Essay as a poetic disaster of absurd theodicy. The Rape of the Text deconstructs the history of criticism of An Essay on Man to account for and to reverse over two hundred years of deformation and trivialization of Popes text by literary critics, philosophers, and historians of ideas. / CONTENTS Acknowledgments Introduction: A Poetic Disaster 1.
