A QUITE RARE VERY AUTHENTIC AND HANDSOME SET OF ONE OF THE GREAT TRANSLATIONS OF THIS MASTERWORK FROM THE ANCIENTS AND WHICH TODAY IS STILL CONSIDERED AS THE "WELLSPRING" OF ALL LITERATURE. ADDITIONALLY THIS SET INCLUDES THE LONG INTRODUCTORY ESSAYS TO HOMER THAT WERE PENNED BY PARNELL AND COMMENTED UPON BY BOTH POPE AND DR. JOHNSON. Pope's brilliant translation of Homer relied on the sense of the texts of Chapman Hobbes Ogilby Dacier and others--but "others have produced translations; Pope's work is a poem" CHEL IX p. 84. Its fame and longevity are due more to Pope's desire to keep the spirit and fire of the epic alive than any obligation to render Homer in academic exactitude. The engraved illustrations and designs original to the period capture the essence of these wonderful poetic constructions. <br> Alexander Pope was an interesting figure in that he was raised as a Roman Catholic in England and was especially intellectually precocious. He was introduced to significant intellectual and political figures at an early age due to his connection with the Roman Catholic community in London. While still young he showed a mature talent in writing poetry--â€the town was fairly dazzled by the young poet’s learning judgment and felicity of expression.†Ency Britt Printed for F.J.
