Letter to the Daily Post on Pope and Crousaz translation
A reader rebukes the Daily Advertiser for naming him as translator of M de Croufitz’s commentary on Mr. Pope’s Essay on Man. He critiques M de Crousaz’s prose and verse translations, defending Pope’s spirit and criticizing the French translator and his commentator. The writer signs as a humble servant and discusses Boehaeve, Lausanne, and related figures.
