Book Description:

Boileau has traditionally been regarded as the spokesman of French neo-classicism but some elements of scholarship have discounted the importance of neo-classical doctrine in general and of Boileau's particular contribution to it. Pocock examines Boileau's commitment to French neo-classicism and his embodiment of it in his work.
