Description:Offers examples of the sterling verse of the three British poet laureates that Alexander Pope lampoons in The Dunciad. The modern office began in 1616 when James I appointed Ben Jonson, but by the early 18th century it was awarded for political agreement with the ruling Whigs and personal connection to the royal family rather than merit. A few are also included by the self-educated thresher poet Stephen Duck to provide a glimpse of someone who was nearly poet laureate; he was beat out by Cibber, who was a friend of the Lord Chamberlain.
