Reviews

[Justin Rose · Rating 4 out of 5]

This collection of essays provides literary enthusiasts with a full, yet concise look at the authors of the Augustan Age. Not an enthusiast myself, _From Dryden_ would have been rich in content if I wasn't reading it with fairly scant portions of literary experience. Still, I gained new understanding in the peculiarities of this age of literature and English history.
