Critique of Mr Gordon as a Polite Writer and Critic
A reader challenges Mr Gordon for presuming authority in dedications to Sir Robert Walpole and the Prince of Wales, arguing his remarks reveal vanity, misjudged patronage, and lack of true critical skill. The piece concludes that Gordon’s Tacitus commentary fails to illuminate with analysis, offering only excitable declamation and misapplied praise.
