Moral Essays

Or Epistles to Several Persons

By Alexander Pope

Edited by W. C. Armstrong

Read by Denis Daly

These four poems, which deal with ethical issues, were collated and published in 1751 by William Warburton, seven years after Pope's death.

The poems were inspired by Pope's admiration for Henry St John, 1st Viscount Bolingbroke, a philosopher and Tory politician.

Also included in this recording is Pope's Epistle to Mr (Joseph) Addison.
