The way literature should be done! "History is not a vacuum," one of my university history professors always told us.Neither is literature for that matter!This book examines the mock-epic poem "Rape of the Lock" in its social, literary, and historical contexts.The poem takes up a small portion of the book, and the rest is made up of diary entries, letters, essays, newspapers, etc. that help to explain the culture surrounding Pope.The city of London, clothes, card games, coffee, makeup, social norms, and countless other things are discussed in very readable and enjoyable ways in order to make "The Rape of the Lock" truly come alive.
The ultimate "mock epic" That is the first function of this poem.Even though the incident is long forgotten, the poem is still very funny.But there is a greater purpose to this poem--it was written like an epic.It contains several epic elements--an epic battle (at the card game), the invocation of muses and gods, the epic quest (to cut the hair), and several literary devices, such as epic-length similes and catalogs.This is what makes this poem so great, and what serves as a testimony to Pope's remarkable genius for wit and satire. Pope was, in my opinion, one of the greatest English poets, certainly the greatest satirist.This is one of his greatest works, and it is short enough to read over and over again without investing too much time.
Brilliantly written with wit, style, and a flair for detail. |
