Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dryden as a Satirist Besides Shaftesbury, there are two other persons, members of the Whig-party, whom Dryden most undeservedly attacked: Thomas Pilkington and Samuel Shute. These two sheriffs of London are called by Dryden gouty hands (v. 182) hindering the head from executing its designs. This head was Sir John Moore, a Tory, who had been elected Lord Mayor, and who was a zealous supporter of the court. Pilkington, who was a very violent man, is said to have broken out in these terms, when it was first reported that the Duke of York intended to leave Scotland: He has already burned the city; and is he now coming to cut all our throats?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetry of John Dryden This is an effort to brighten the most neglected side of the greatest neglected English poet. There is some novelty, I hope, in a treatment on an ex tended and more or less enthusiastic scale of Dry den's non-dramatic verse as a body, with attention to the celebrator, the satirist, the journalist, the singer, and the story-teller all together. No justifi cation will be required, probably, for my interest in a poetic personality always important and never more freshly so than now.

Download or read book Dryden Classic Reprint written by George Saintsbury and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dryden A writer on Dryden is more especially bound to acknowledge his indebtedness to his predecessors, because, so far as matters of fact are concerned, that indebtedness must necessarily be greater than in most other cases. There is now little chance of fresh information being obtained about the poet, unless it be in a few letters hitherto undiscovered or withheld from publication. I have, therefore, to acknowledge my debt to Johnson, Malone, Scott, Mitford, Bell, Christie, the Rev. R. Hooper, and the writer of an article in the Quarterly Review for 1878. Murray's "Guide to Northamptonshire" has been of much use to me in the visits I have made to Dryden's birthplace, and the numerous other places associated with his memory in his native county. To Mr. J. Churton Collins I owe thanks for pointing out to me a Dryden house which, so far as he and I know, has escaped the notice of previous biographers. Mr. W. Noel Sainsbury, of the Record Office, has supplied me with some valuable information. My friend Mr. Edmund W. Gosse has not only read the proof-sheets of this book with the greatest care, suggesting many things of value, but has also kindly allowed me the use of original editions of many late seventeenth- century works, including most of the rare pamphlets against the poet in reply to his satires.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Age of Dryden The accession of Charles II. As king de facto, which in the political history of England marks a Restoration, in her literary history marks a Revolution. Not that the transition from one mode of writing and thinking to another was instantaneous, or enjoined by legislative or academical decree. It had long been slowly progressing, and its unequivocal triumph would probably have come to pass sooner but for the obstruction to the intellectual life of the nation occasioned by twenty years of civil commo tion. The magnitude of this impediment appears from the fact that all thg matings of even so great a scholar and poet as Milton, produced during this interval, were Of a polemical nature. When at last society found sufficient stability to allow its members to write for fame, emo lument, or the extension of knowledge, it quickly became manifest how wide a gulf yawned between the men of that day and the men of twenty years ago. The new influence, indeed, had long been at work. A comparison, for example, of the last of the old dramatists, Massinger and Shirley, with their predecessors, evinces how much even in their day the stage was losing in poetry, in imagination, and in the charm Of musical metre; how.
