It's pleasant to imagine that somewhere (be it a Good, Bad, or Medium Place) Pope and H.L. Mencken might be laughing uproariously together.
"A little learning is a dang'rous thing"... Lovely to read someone who clearly has a lot more than just a little learning when it comes to Pope. Thanks for sharing, Henry. And best of luck for the rest of your PhD, Jane!
Thank you v much indeed:)
Pope’s virtuosity in demonstrating errors as he condemns them always brings me back — in admiration — to the Essay on Criticism.
