John Dryden - Classicist and Translator

by Stuart Gillespie (Editor)

This book is a collaborative attempt to assess Dryden’s work as translator of the classics 300 years after his death. Critical consensus can always be a cover for inertia, and even admirers may be glad of an opportunity to reassess the ground of their enthusiasm. The contributors are all concerned to press the claims of Dryden as classicist and translator to wider attention.
