Hudibras, a satirical poem by Samuel Butler, stands as a cornerstone of English literature. This first volume introduces readers to the eponymous knight, Sir Hudibras, and his squire, Ralpho, as they embark on a series of misadventures. Written in the mid-17th century, the poem is a biting commentary on the politics and religious fanaticism of the English Civil War and the Interregnum. Butlerâ(TM)s witty and inventive use of octosyllabic couplets creates a unique and memorable reading experience. Zachary Grey's notes offer invaluable context. "Hudibras" remains a relevant and entertaining critique of hypocrisy and folly, securing its place as a classic of satirical verse.
