Beschreibung

"Rochester" is a biographical work on the life of John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester. The 17th century English nobleman was a poet and courtier of King Charles II's Restoration court. Famed for his antics at court and his rakish lifestyle, he was nevertheless a celebrated poet. During his lifetime, Rochester was best known for his book 'A Satyr Against Reason and Mankind', and it remains among his best-known works today. Author Charles Williams takes an in depth look at his personal life, recounting the events that wrought much scandal in the court of Charles II. He has also made a literary critique of Rochester's other works, giving a background to some of them.
