Edith Sitwell's eighteenth century has been described as "emphatically not an age of rationalism, but of eccentricity". Sitwell imagines Pope "as a misfit in a world that insisted on sameness, an artist of gleeful perversity who delighted in cataloguing the absurdities of dunces. Sitwell was writing a passionate defence of an ill, odd, disfigured, ostracized poet whose work was a way of getting through the 'long disease' of life". (Alexandra Harris, Romantic Moderns, p65).
