Reviews

`McLaverty's book describes the ways in which Pope used the resources of print - typography, headpieces and tailpieces, title pages, annotations, illustrations - to control the reception of his work McLaverty shows how all Pope's means of publication shaped the meaning of his work for his contemporaries.'
