Postscript on Metastasio translation at Drury Lane
The essay debates Aaron Hill and Hoole on Merope and Cyrus translations from Voltaire. It lauds Metastasio as a poet, critiques fidelity to original style, and favors Hoole for preserving dramatic effect over direct translation, while noting Digmond’s Eurydice and Merope’s lead actress as notable but secondary.
