A treatment on an extended scale of Dryden's non-dramatic verse, with attention to the celebrator, the satirist, the journalist, the singer, and the story-teller. Van Doren's 1920 "effort to brighten the most neglected side of the greatest neglected English poet" remains a foundation stone in Dryden biography and criticism and presented the definitive statement of Dryden's reputation at the time.
