Nicolas Boileau-Despréaux November 1 1636 - March 13 1711 commonly called Boileau was a French poet and critic. He holds a well-defined place in French literature as the first who reduced its versification to rule and taught the value of workmanship for its own sake. His influence on English literature through Pope and his contemporaries was not less strong though less durable. After much undue depreciation Boileau's critical work has been rehabilitated by recent writers perhaps to the extent of some exaggeration in the other direction. It has been shown that in spite of undue harshness in individual cases most of his criticisms have been substantially adopted by his successors. . Full Calf Leather. Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
