The Poetical Works of Alexander Pope Volume 1 eBook Alexander Pope
I believe it is extremely hard to objectively criticize poetry and essays. They are so subjective to the individual according to their own personal preferences.Personally, I enjoyed reading Pope from the first time that I read him in school. I think anyone who likes poetry should read him. His satire is sublime. If for nothing else in this book, you must read "The Rape of the Lock".
But poetry isn't the only thing in this book. You get some incite into his own ideas about poetry and his own take on life from the preface and the explanatory notes at the beginning of the book and his own notations. There is a lot to absorb in this book. Some readers may not be too keen to the language of the period. I've noticed that complaint from some readers of period pieces. Just keep that in mind.
This is also an interesting take on the period of time that Pope lived in.
I realize that someone else might not be so inclined to like his works, but since it is free, you can always delete it from your library.
Highly recommended for the poetry lover and essay enthusiast. I know they will enjoy the book.

POPE IS THE SUPREME INTELLECT THAT GOT IN THE WAY OF A NORMAL LIFE; THE FATHER OF MODERN PROSE POETRY.
Good intro to Pope's work, useful notes, not bad for a free ebook read on a . Although I find his sexism off-putting, his excuse is that he's a product of his time, and context matters.
He gets four stars. What is of extreme interest in this edition is the introduction. It was written by a Doctor of Divinity who does little to commend the man, and has little to say about the poet. The Dr. Has his own version of snark.
How can you know be impressed with a person who wrote a world of poetry in "heroic couplet"? Alexander Pope, elevated the already well-known heroic couplet into a 19th century standard by which to write. Loved his "Dunciads" - worth the price of the book.
We're talking about a poetic form that is not much written in any more, but stands as a beacon of what can be done with meter, rhyme and structure. Love it. Timeless.
