| Popis | This article considers the influence of William Johnson (later Cory) on his former Eton pupil Digby Mackworth Dolben, as well as the ways that Dolben's poem "A Vocation" responds to Johnson's poem "An Invocation." The result is a close reading that displays the intertextual strategies, mostly Classical in their allusiveness, employed by Uranian writers to disclose their desires to their congenial coterie as well as to render those desires opaque to general readers. |
