Notes:
Revised version of text written in 1950 as 'Dunciad Minimus: an heroic poem' and circulated in typescript to a few friends. A few copies of a revised text were produced as 'Dunciad Miminus: an heroic poem' in mimeograph form for Hope by the ANU Press in 1963. Both versions had a note on the title page stating that the text was 'Profusely annotated by A.A.P. and A.P.' 'A.A.P' was the literary critic Arthur Phillips while 'A.P' was his father, Ambrose Phillips'. Hooton in her bibliography of Hope (item 15) states that the original tyepscript version was lost but that there are copies of the mimeographed version in the Menzies Library at ANU and the La Trobe Library (State Library of Library). However the copy she refers to in the State Library of Victoria is actually one of the original 1950 typescript versions, not the 1963 mimeographed one.

Works about this Work

The Poetics and Practicalities of Writing Tom Griffiths , 2009 single work criticism
— Appears in: Writing Histories: Imagination and Narration 2009; 'Inga Clendinnen, an outstanding and imaginative historian, recently confessed that when she asked a class of new history graduates which historians they read for pleasure, they laughed! ‘I knew why they laughed’, she explained sadly. It’s because so many scholars compromise communication with pompous posturing; they are too busy staking out intellectual territory and warding others off it; they are too busy digging in their fields isolating ‘stone-hard, stone-cold facts’ to bother looking up or around; they are so furiously in pursuit of ‘objectivity’ that they delete themselves from their scripts and employ a weird, passionless prose. Clendinnen says that she enjoys reading great historians, like E.P. Thompson, for the same reason she enjoys reading great novelists—they offer an entrée into richly imagined worlds. But, she confesses, there is a difference. For her, when reading non-fiction, the bliss is tempered and intensified by a critical alertness and an undertow of moral implication not present in what she calls ‘the limpid realms of fiction’.'
