John Dryden was an influential English writer during the Restoration period who made important contributions to literary criticism as a neoclassicist. Some of his major works of criticism include An Essay of Dramatic Poesy, in which he defended English dramatists and tragi-comedy plays. He also wrote prefaces and dedications for his translations of classical works where he advocated for certain poetic forms and defended his own creative choices. However, his criticism was sometimes inconsistent or repetitive as it was scattered across several prefaces rather than presented in a systematic treatise.
