About this listen
Epigrams and Epitaphs
By Alexander Pope
Edited by W. C. Armstrong
Read by Denis Daly
Pope's mastery of the heroic couplet and his perceptive wit are apparent in the many epigrams and epitaphs that he composed. The subjects of these snippets of verse are widely varied, ranging from encomiums to great celebrities like Sir Isaac Newton to witty soupçons, like that attached to the collar of a dog that the poet gave to Prince George (later King George II).
This recording also includes an extensive commentary on Pope's Epitaphs by Samuel Johnson.
