约翰·丹尼斯（John Dennis, 1657-1734）是英国十八世纪文学史上重要的批评家，也是第一个肯定弥尔顿《失乐园》的作家。他高度赞扬这部作品的优美，并认为弥尔顿所运用的自由体格将史诗的主题思想、语言的表达、以及作者精神和谐的融为一体，使读者过目难忘、身临其境，他还认为这种新的自由体诗歌能够开创英国文坛的新气象，并对18世纪乃至以后的文学作品产生深远的影响。John Dennis (born 1657, London, Eng.—died Jan. 6, 1734, London) was an English critic and dramatist whose insistence upon the importance of passion in poetry led to a long quarrel with Alexander Pope.
Educated at Harrow School and the University of Cambridge, Dennis traveled in Europe before settling in London, where he met leading literary figures. At first he wrote odes and plays, but, although a prolific dramatist, he was never very successful.The most important of Dennis’ critical works are The Usefulness of the Stage (1698), The Advancement and Reformation of Modern Poetry (1701), The Grounds of Criticism in Poetry (1704), and An Essay on the Genius and Writings of Shakespear (1712). His basic contention was that literature, and especially drama, is comparable to religion in that its effect is to move men’s minds by means of the emotions. What Dennis looked for primarily in a work of art was passion and elevation rather than decorum and polish. His idol among English poets was John Milton, and he had an enthusiasm for the sublime, a concept that was newly fashionable in England and France. This bias may explain Dennis’ antipathy toward Pope and probably accounts for the hostility between them. Pope, who thought Dennis’ work bombastic, included an adverse allusion to Dennis in his “Essay on Criticism.” Dennis replied with Reflections Critical and Satyrical (1711), which mixed criticism of Pope’s poem with a vicious personal attack upon Pope as “a hunch-back’d toad” whose deformed body mirrored a deformed mind. Despite a temporary reconciliation, the quarrel continued sporadically until Dennis’ death. Dennis figures a good deal in Pope’s mock epic The Dunciad (1728), especially in its sarcastic footnotes. Dennis also defended the drama against the English bishop Jeremy Collier’s condemnation of it in 1698. Dennis argued that plays discouraged disaffection by spreading pleasure and providing exercise for the passions.
