Summary, etc This lively and authoritative guide to the life of Alexander Pope, the man who emerged from obscure origins to become the uncrowned poet Laureate of his age.<br/><br/>Though Pope called life “a warfare upon earth”, Dr. Rosslyn offers us a sympathetic portrait of the poet who overcame poverty and, what in 18th Century England was, an embarrassing deformity. Not only did he become a renowned poet, he also make the largest literary fortune since Shakespeare.<br/><br/>Rosslyn describes the mixture of passion and pragmatism that caused Pope to create poetry out of a legion of enemies, and pays tribute to the professionalism of a writer who thought no sacrifice too great for his art.
