Joshua Dinsdale

Little information remains of Joshua Dinsdale, who published books, pamphlets and poems between the years 1740–51. He had a Master of Arts degree, signified by the letters A.M. after his name on one of his translations. That he may also have been a clergyman is suggested by his A Sermon on Charity published in August 1740. In 1740 he also published two free adaptations of sections from fr:Jacques Vanière's Latin poem Praedium Rusticum, a georgic compendium of rural know-how popular during the 18th century. The Dove-Cote or, the art of breeding pigeons, a poem was a version of the 13th section (Columbae) of Vanière's poem; this was published anonymously but later ascribed to Dinsdale. It was followed by The Modern Art of Breeding Bees, this time signed with his name. However, only the first two cantos of the 14th section of Vanière's work were drawn upon for that work. And Dinsdale's own opening lines are addressed to Virgil, who dealt with the subject of bee culture in the fourth book of his Georgica, thus placing Dinsdale's poem too in the 18th century tradition of English classical imitations.
