Greek Learning and the Poetic Spirit in English Verse
A letter discusses the value of Greek over Latin for poetry, urging study of Grecian writers to inspire English taste. It muses on translation, Antient sages, and the potential revival of Greek language and poetry through future restorers and patrons. Reads as a periodical miscellany note from 1733.
