In the first edition, vol.1. Dodsley states that his wish in publishing the work is to preserve to the public those poetical performances, which seemed to merit a longer remembrance than what would probably be secured to them by the Manner wherein they were originally published .Robert Dodsley (1703 - 1764 ) was an English bookseller, publisher, poet, playwright, and miscellaneous writer. Coming from very humble beginnings in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, with the help of Alexander Pope and others he became one of the foremost publishers of the day.

The ODNB notes of this work - ' 'Its pages reflect the work of most major and minor practicing poets in Dodsley's era' . For more details of Dodsley see ODNB. ESTC T116246.
