Omschrijving

The Great Assises Holden In Parnassus By Apollo And His Assessors is a book written by George Wither and published in 1885. The book is a satirical allegory that portrays a court trial held on Mount Parnassus, the home of the Muses in Greek mythology. The trial is presided over by Apollo, the god of music and poetry, and his assessors, who are the Muses themselves. In the trial, various poets and writers are brought before the court and judged based on their literary works. The book is a commentary on the literary world of the time, and the author uses the allegory to criticize the poets and writers who he believes are not upholding the standards of good literature. The book is written in verse and is divided into several sections, each dealing with a different aspect of the trial. The language used in the book is archaic and may be difficult for modern readers to understand. However, the book is considered to be an important piece of English literature and is studied by scholars and students of literature. Overall, The Great Assises Holden In Parnassus By Apollo And His Assessors is a satirical and allegorical work that provides insight into the literary world of the time and the standards that were upheld by writers and poets.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
