K. G. Hamilton argues that Dryden's poetic genius lies in his mastery of the poetry of statement — a mode of verse that communicates ideas with clarity, precision, and rhetorical force. The study details the structural and stylistic techniques that define Dryden's verse, illustrating how his command of language shaped the course of English literary history. Written in a measured and academic tone, it remains an essential reference for students and scholars of seventeenth-century English literature and poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956317565147,"sku":"2026200008250-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c7317454-f18d-4df0-9f49-abee680747e7.png?v=1783499584","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008250-secondhand-john-dryden-and-the-poetry-of-statement","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
