Abstract: This study examines the relationship between the critical observations of Alexander Pope as they appear in Joseph Spence's "Anecdotes" and the critical theory Pope advanced in his own published works. A relationship established, the study concludes that the "Anecdotes" merits consideration as a scholarly tool for any research into Pope's critical theories.
