Alexander Pope was born in London as the son of Alexander Pope, a Roman Catholic linen-merchant, and Edith (Turner) Pope, who was forty-four when Alexander, her only child, was born. Edith Pope belonged to a large Yorkshire family, which divided along Catholic and Protestant lines. His early years Pope spent at Binfield on the edge of Windsor Forest, and recalled this period as a golden age: "Thy forests, Windsor, and thy green retreats, / At once the monarch's and the Muse's seats, / Invite my lays. Be present, sylvan maids! Unlock your springs, and open all your shades." Anecdotes from Pope's life were deemed worthy of collecting during his lifetime. Joseph Spence, a critic, minor poet, and Pope's biographer, tells that Pope was "a child of a particularly sweet temper and had a great deal of sweetness in his look when he was a boy".

Alexander Pope
Alexander Pope，1688年5月21日 - 1744年5月30日， 是18世纪英国最伟大的诗人，杰出的启蒙主义者。
English essayist, critic, satirist, and one of the greatest poets of Enlightenment. Pope wrote his first verses at the age of 12. His breakthrough work, AN ESSAY ON CRITICISM (1711), appeared when he was twenty-three. It included the famous line "a little learning is a dangerous thing." Pope's physical defects made him an easy target for heartless mockery, but he was also considered a leading literary critic and the epitome of English Neoclassicism.
早期作品
他的第一部重要作品是1711年他23岁时出 版的诗体《批评论》，其中许多名句已经 成为英语成语。
1712年他写作了长篇讽刺诗《夺发记》， 1714年又补充了两章。这首诗描写一家男 孩偷剪了另一家女孩的一绺金发，因为此 事引起两家的争执。蒲柏把此事描写得和 《伊利亚特》中特洛伊战争一样壮观，写 成了一部英雄史诗。
蒲柏是第一位受到欧洲大陆 关注的英国诗人，他的著作 把翻译成欧洲许多国家的文 字。
Pope's admired Horace and Vergilius and valued them as models for poetry. His great achievements was the translations of Iliad and Odyssey into English. The success of Pope's translations enabled him to move to Twickenham from anti-Catholic pressure of the Jacobites. However, Pope remained a Catholic even after the death of his father (d. 1717) and mother (d. 1733). Pope's collected works were published in 1717. He was one of the first professional poets to be self-sufficient as a result of his non-dramatic writings.
中后期作品
1713年起，他着手翻译荷马的史诗 《伊利亚特》和《奥德赛》。
蒲柏的代表作是讽刺长诗《鬈发遇 劫记》（TheRapeoftheLock， 1714），诗人称之为“英雄滑稽诗” （AnHeroi-ComicalPoem）。

19世纪对蒲柏的评价不佳， 认为他的用词过于造作，韵 律过于死板，他的讽刺有点 不太人道。但到了20世纪， 他的声望又开始提高，有的 诗作如《夺发记》和一些讽 刺诗被称为讽刺诗的最高境 界；但有些诗如《人论》普 遍认为并无多少独创的思想； 他的《伊利亚特》译本和 《群愚史诗》一直受到争议。
