All nature is but art, unknown to thee; All chance · Alexander Pope

All nature is but art, unknown to thee; All chance, direction which thou canst not see; All discord, harmony not understood; All partial evil, universal good; And, spite of pride, in erring reason’s spite, One truth is clear, Whatever is, is right.

Alexander Pope

1688-05-21 — 1744-05-30 · Londres

Alexander Pope was a towering figure of English Neoclassical literature, renowned for his sharp wit, satirical genius, and masterful command of the heroic couplet. A key figure of the Augustan age, his poetry often explored moral and philosophical themes with clarity, elegance, and precision. His translations of Homer and his original works remain cornerstones of English poetry, celebrated for their intellectual rigor and polished style.
