This work attempts a reconstruction of the rhetorical sensibility that Alexander Pope expected of his eighteenth-century reader and seeks a revision of our understanding of his poetry as modern readers. Quintero focuses on six major poems published from 1711 to 1729 including An Essay on Criticism and The Rape of the Lock.
