The Memoirs of Martinus Scriblerus

English

By (author): Alexander Pope

Alexander Pope was, at one time, the worlds most celebrated poet. His trenchant satirical works in which the foibles of all the critics, hacks and bad poets of his day are exploded and his masterful heroi-comic poem The Rape of the Lock continue to inspire generations of writers and readers to this day. Alongside his more prominent poetical production, Pope engaged with some of the sharpest wits of his era including Jonathan Swift and John Gay, the author of The Beggars Opera in writing a number of satirical prose works, of which Scriblerus is perhaps the greatest achievement. As he prepares to become father for the fi rst time, the scholar Cornelius is determined to settle on nothing less than a child of the learned sex a boy and give him the most thorough education so that he can become the greatest critic who ever lived. An account of the birth, the infancy, the schooling, the diet-planning, the unconventional love affairs and the attainments of this child prodigy,The Memoirs of Martinus Scriblerus is surely the funniest imaginary biography ever written.
