The Early Career of Alexander Pope is a comprehensive study of the life and works of the famous English poet, Alexander Pope, written by George Sherburn. The book focuses on Pope's early career, from his birth in 1688 to the publication of his first major work, An Essay on Criticism, in 1711. Sherburn provides a detailed analysis of Pope's early poems, including Pastorals, Windsor Forest, and Eloisa to Abelard, and examines the influence of other writers, such as John Dryden and Edmund Spenser, on Pope's work. The book also explores Pope's literary and social circles, including his friendship with Jonathan Swift and his involvement in the Scriblerus Club. Sherburn's study offers a valuable insight into the formative years of one of the most important poets of the 18th century and sheds light on the cultural and literary context in which he worked.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
