Produced by Richard Tonsing, Jonathan Ingram and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Dryden's Works Vol. 13" by John Dryden is a collection of literary translations and essays written in the early 19th century. This volume includes translations of satirical works by classical authors such as Juvenal and Persius, along with an introductory essay on satire, addressed to a noble patron. The focus of this work is on Dryden's interpretations of these ancient satires, exploring themes of human folly and moral critique. The opening of the volume features an extensive dedication and essay on satire addressed to Charles, Earl of Dorset and Middlesex. Dryden reflects on societal issues in his time, praising his patron's virtues while calling for more genuine poetic expression. He sets the stage for the translations that follow, which delve into the satirical examination of human behaviors and vices, evaluating both ancient and contemporary figures through a lens of wit and criticism, thus establishing a historically rich context for the satires by Juvenal and Persius that will be presented in the subsequent pages.
