Beskrivelse af The Diaboliad
The Diaboliad is a satirical poem written by William Combe in 1677. The poem is a scathing critique of the political and social climate of England during the late 17th century. It tells the story of the devil, who visits England and observes the corruption and vice that he finds there. The devil is shocked by what he sees and decides to write a book about his experiences. The book, which is called The Diaboliad, is a biting satire that exposes the hypocrisy and greed of the English ruling class. The poem is written in rhyming couplets and is full of witty wordplay and clever puns. It is a humorous and entertaining read, but it also has a serious message about the dangers of unchecked power and the importance of moral integrity. The Diaboliad is a classic work of English satire and is still widely read and enjoyed today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
