The importance of Warton's Essay on Pope to the literary world of its day is indicated by the fact that within fifty years its first publication was reprinted five times. MacClintock traces the history of its growth and development, and he clears up a number of points about the reception and circulation of the book. This book should prove a valuable reference for students of the romantic revival.
