They are united by a persistent concern with problems of knowledge and by a single and recognizable voice: that of the poet-narrator engaged in an effort to know both the world and himself. The twentieth-century image of Pope as a serious poet of moral themes is accurate but incomplete, for the poet's subject is not simply the effort to live rightly but the difficulties in discovering how to do so. The poems of this period, then, are indeed explorations of morality, but they are also acts of knowledge.* A NEAR VG+ ex-library copy of the 1st edn. with only minor faults. No dust jacket.* 1981-12-01. n. N° de réf. du vendeur 39
