Some Passages Of The Life And Death Of The Right Honorable John Earl Of Rochester is a biography written by Gilbert Burnet about the life of John Wilmot, the 2nd Earl of Rochester. The book covers the major events and accomplishments of Rochester's life, including his rise to prominence as a poet and courtier, his scandalous behavior and libertine lifestyle, and his eventual death at the young age of 33. Burnet also explores Rochester's relationships with other prominent figures of his time, including King Charles II and the playwright Aphra Behn. Throughout the book, Burnet provides insights into Rochester's character and motivations, and offers a nuanced portrait of a complex and controversial figure. The book is considered an important work of 17th-century literature and biography, and remains a popular source of information about Rochester's life and legacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
