| 520 | _a"Discourse on Criticism and of Poetry" by Samuel Cobb is an essay on literary criticism and poetic expression written during the early 18th century, a period often referred to as the Augustan era. This book serves as both a discourse on the nature of poetry and a reflection on the art of criticism, exploring how poetry has developed and how it is judged. Cobb, who was educated at Cambridge and known for his wit and learning, examines the role of both the poet and the critic in shaping literature. Throughout this discourse, Cobb delves into the antiquity and evolution of poetry, considering its divine origins and the influence of various historical figures. He discusses the characteristics that define great poetry and critiques contemporary critics for their often harsh judgments. By weaving together historical allusions with reflections on the craft, Cobb argues for a more nuanced understanding of poetry—one that values creativity and individuality over mere adherence to rules. He highlights the interplay between genius and discipline in the literary arts, positioning himself as an advocate for the poet's liberty in crafting their work free from the constraints imposed by rigid criticism.
