| 520 | |a In Dryden's Final Poetic Mode, Reverend focuses on Dryden's characteristic concerns--love and war, power and kingship, the Christian ideal--tracing how Dryden assembles informing ideals and yet dissolves them as well. By examining Dryden's treatment of familiar issues, Reverand demonstrates that this final poetic mode is not discontinuous with the earlier poetry but is a further development, a reevaluation of the principles that sustained the poet throughout his career. "Fables" expresses Dryden's personal experience dealing with a changed and changing world. With the values he cherished crumbling, he is trapped into trying to reconcile the irreconcilable. His book reveals the fragility of various systems of value and the futility of discovering abiding ideals in a universe of perpetual flux, but it also reveals a poet who actively pursues meaning rather than surrendering to despair. It is the attempt to accommodate to a changing, subversive world that Reverand asserts is the impulse behind "Fables" and the central issue of Dryden's life in the 1690s. | ||
