Question

what is the poem "The Triumph of Infidelity" by Timothy Dwight about?

Answer 1

The Triumph of Infidelity, as one critic puts it, is "a lost classic of late Augustan satire ... [and] a unique example of the convergence of literature, religion and politics at the moment the new American Republic was first being imagined."
The poem is a microcosm through which to view the culture wars of the age and, in embryonic form, the thought and career of its author Timothy Dwight.
