Produktbeschreibung
"The Hind and the Panther" is a lengthy allegorical poem written by John Dryden, one of the leading literary figures of the Restoration period in England. The poem was written in 1687 and is a political and religious allegory that addresses the religious tensions of the time. The poem uses the allegorical figures of a hind (a female deer) and a panther to represent the conflicting religious beliefs of Roman Catholics and Anglicans in England. The hind, representing the Catholic Church, is persecuted, while the panther, representing the Church of England, is depicted as the true and tolerant church. Dryden's poem explores complex theological and political issues, including the debates between Catholics and Protestants and the broader context of the Glorious Revolution. The poem is written in a variety of verse forms, including heroic couplets, and reflects Dryden's mastery of language and poetic technique. "The Hind and the Panther" is considered one of Dryden's major works, and its intricate allegory and political commentary make it a significant piece in the literature of the late 17th century. Readers interested in the historical and religious context of the time may find this poem to be a rich and challenging exploration of those themes.
