''An Essay On Man'' is a philosophical poem written by Alexander Pope in 1733. The poem is divided into four epistles and explores the nature of humanity and its place in the universe. Pope argues that humans are a part of a greater cosmic order and that everything in the universe is interconnected. He also discusses the concept of free will and the role of reason in human life. The poem is written in heroic couplets and is often considered one of Pope’s greatest works. In this 1870 edition, the text is accompanied by an introduction and notes by the editor.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
