Summary | "Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine - Volume 57, No. 352, February 1845" by Various is a historical periodical written in the mid-19th century. This volume contains a collection of essays, articles, and literary critiques, reflecting the intellectual and cultural discourse of the time. The topics range widely, from poetry and criticism to explorations of societal issues, highlighting the magazine's aim to engage with contemporary subjects in literature and society. The opening of this volume introduces an article that discusses the nature of poetry and criticism through references to significant historical figures such as Dryden. It emphasizes the importance of poetry in understanding the human spirit and societal morals. The article transitions into a detailed examination of Dryden's contributions to English criticism, particularly focusing on his defenses of heroic verse and rhyme in theatre. Through a dialogue format, it sets the stage for a lively debate on the merits and drawbacks of different poetic forms, laying the groundwork for further discussions on the evolution of literature and its role in society.
