A Curious Glimpse Into Payne Knight and Alfred Parodies
A reader recalls cutting into an 1823 Bodleian volume and examines Payne Knight’s works and the anti-Jacobin parody on Alfred. The piece surveys Knight’s life, his wealth, Italy years, and his didactic poetry, noting Alfred is a flawed homage while praising Knight’s landscape poetry, plus Downton Castle and Knight’s art collection later bequeathed to the British Museum.
