CHAPTER III
POPE
a
NOTE. Pope's own methods of publication were so various and intricate,
and the number of books, pamphlets and articles dealing with his life and
writings is so very great, that in no part of this bibliography can more than
a selection be presented.
I. MSS
The originals and early copies of many of Pope's letters are in existence,
an important circumstance, since the correspondence for whose publication
he himself was responsible was most elaborately doctored. The British
Museum has the copies which Caryll made of Pope's letters to himself,
letters of Pope to Allen, Sir Hans Sloane and Warburton, and letters from
some of Pope's correspondents, on the backs of which he wrote his translation of
Homer. Wycherley's letters to Pope and letters of Pope to the earl of Oxford
are in the possession of the marquis of Bath at Longleat. The Bodleian has
letters of Pope to Cromwell. Letters to Martha and Teresa Blount are at
Mapledurham. Letters to lord Bathurst are in the Bathurst collection.
Letters to the earl of Orrery are in the possession of the earl of Cork. Mr John
Murray bas Pope's letters to Broome. Other letters of Pope and a few books
with his autograph notes are preserved. See preface to vol. ix of Courthope's
edition.
The MSS of some of Pope's poems (the Pastorals, An Essay on Man, the
Epistle to Arbuthnot, etc. ) were given by him to Jonathan Richardson and
passed into the Chauncy collection. The British Museum has the original
MSS of the translations of Homer presented by Mallet, written largely on
scraps of paper and the backs of envelopes.
