Book Description
More than any other period of British literature, Romanticism is strongly identified with a single genre. Romantic poetry has been one of the most enduring, best loved, most widely read and most frequently studied genres for two centuries and remains no less so today. This Companion offers a comprehensive overview and interpretation of the poetry of the period in its literary and historical contexts. The essays consider its metrical, formal, and linguistic features; its relation to history; its influence on other genres; its reflections of empire and nationalism, both within and outside the British Isles; and the various implications of oral transmission and the rapid expansion of print culture and mass readership. Attention is given to the work of less well-known or recently rediscovered authors, alongside the achievements of some of the greatest poets in the English language: Wordsworth, Coleridge, Blake, Scott, Burns, Keats, Shelley, Byron and Clare.

Book Description
The Reputation Of Wordsworth, Once Regarded As The Most Important Exponent Of English Romanticism, Has, Strangely, Been Quite Controversial, And The Critical Reception Of His Poetry Had Many Ups And Downs. If Arnold Considers Him One Of The Chief Glories Of English Poetry Byron Considers Him As A Hireling Poet And A Prince Of Dullness, And It Is A Fact That Never In His Lifetime Wordsworth Came Near To Such Popularity As That Of Scott Or Byron. Yet, Southey Whom Wordsworth Succeeded As Poet Laureate Held That A Greater Poet Than Wordsworth There Never Has Been Or Will Be. Tennyson Was Grateful To Wordsworth For What He Had Learned From Him And Kept His Admiration For Him On Record In His Verse.It Will Be Salutary To Revisit Wordsworth, With The Benefit Of Hindsight, Through The Essays Included In This Volume Most Of Which Were Written More Than Hundred Years Ago, And Draw Our Independent Conclusions. The Students And Teachers Of English Literature Will Certainly Find These Historically Valuable Essays, Some Of Which Are Not Easily Accessible These Days, Very Useful And Exciting, And A Scholar On Wordsworth Can Least Afford To Ignore Them.Contents: Wordsworth S Life: An Outline, Coleridge On Wordsworth, Hazlitt On Wordsworth, De Quincey On Wordsworth, Arnold On Wordsworth, Morley On Wordsworth, Herford On Wordsworth, Elton On Wordsworth.
